Description
These shafts are to be used with the much loved £8 Lidl Glider, you'll need a length of 4mm mild steel rod and some 5mm diameter magnets, I used these
The wing shafts have a recess for the magnet to fit into, upto four can be added with space for hot glue to hold them in place.
The shafts should be printed with a 100% infill, i used a 0.2mm layer height which seems just fine, after printing use a 4mm drill bit to clear any bits not wanted then using a drill with the steel rod attacked spin the rod within the shaft, this will heat the PLA and shape it so a smooth action can be achieved, for lubrication i used silicone grease.
