printed bearings

Post by darkjorik »

is someone trying to print bearings ? Maybe have a successful printing with Max 2 ?
i try to print this model http://www.myminifactory.com/object/imp ... gs-mini-71" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and get nothing.
I tried with ABS and PLA, its look like impossible. with balls. Only fail prints.

Printing these requires the correct support settings in the slicer. You need to have an almost solid support disc for the very small point of contact that the balls sit on. And if one comes loose, your done. :)
