--------TIPS / INFO--------

PRINTING:
Print settings (recommended min. w/ 0.4mm nozzle) - PLA - 3 walls, 4 bottom, 4 top, 20% infill.
Acetone and paper towel will quickly and easily clean up the PVC pipe parts.
The ends of the PVC pipe need to be cut as squarely as possible to ensure smooth rolling.
Two layers of masking tape on the flat side of the roller endcap act as a shim for the bearing (see photo).
You may or may not need to glue the sides to the end pieces depending on fitment… I preferred to glue them wanting a permanent joint.
