Description
finally the new core XY from Prusa is announced.
Because of the holidays that are comming and the price of the printer i decide to make a piggy bank for it. For me it is verry funny to save for a printer inside a 3D printed model of the printer. At the end the circle is round. At the bottom there is a threath stop now so you can open and close the piggy bank as much as needed until you saved the money.
I start with the model from blixt and i adjust the original stl in fusion 360. Wat i have done in the files is.
Made the main part model 200% bigger and made it hollow.(1.6mm for 4 times 0.4 nozzel diameter)
Made a cut in the top to put money in.
Made the top part separate to reduce the filament waste and made it easy to print
Made a threat stop at the bottom for easy opening and looking.
resize the inserts by 200% to fit the main parts.
Print tips:
You can best orientate the parts like on the photo. This result in now need forsupport in al the files only for the main part. The threath of the stop you normally can print without the need of support. With my MK3S it works verry great.
The main part you need to print in normal position. I used three support and only on buildplate to start the support settings. Afther this i advise you to made a support blokker on the threaths of the part and also on the bottom overhang. Here you save some filament and make a better surface. i made some pictures from my three support to give a idea.
Good luck and i hope a see some savings comming.
