themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted July 1, 2016 Report Posted July 1, 2016 I can't see a downloadable file on there, I take it I need to approach the designer directly? Quote
TK Goatee[TK] Posted July 1, 2016 Report Posted July 1, 2016 Yes, just send him a mail. Mate answers fast. I already purchased the files. Taking a detail look at them today. 1 Quote

SixCrazyPants Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Posted July 13, 2016 Begun, my printing has... how well does the screw feature work? I haven't had time to print it yet. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
jonhaag[501st] Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 how well does the screw feature work? I haven't had time to print it yet. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I was scared that it wouldn't work, but it actually works out just fine on these two halves. Just have to figure out the right place to start inserting the male end the first time you do it. Only issue I've had was I forgot to add any tolerance to the dovetail joint I used to combine the splits I had to make for the buttstock and it cracked a little when I went to slide it together. Easy enough fix though, and I've added tolerances to my joints going forward. Quote
Feedback[TK] Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 Jon, do you think it would be solid enough to troop with ? Quote
jonhaag[501st] Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 Jon, do you think it would be solid enough to troop with ? We will find out once it's all put together. I'll probably use PVC for the barrel rather than printing since that'll be the weakest large part. Quote
SixCrazyPants Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Posted July 13, 2016 Jon, do you think it would be solid enough to troop with ?If you print it with 4 walls and at least 30% infill it should solid as a rock. I've made rifles for guys doing Halo Cosplay, and they take a beating and still look new. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote

PVC barrel sounds great but I wonder if all the printed parts that go on the barrel will need adjustment ? Quote

SixCrazyPants Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Posted July 13, 2016 is that in ABS? I can only do PLA which won't be as tough. nope, that's in PLA. I used to think it was really fragile till I learned a better way to print it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote
kman[TK] Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 is that in ABS? I can only do PLA which won't be as tough.The Play won't do ABS, even with the heated platform upgrade? Quote
kman[TK] Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 nope, that's in PLA. I used to think it was really fragile till I learned a better way to print it.PLA can be built a lot stronger than I initially thought... but don't leave it leaning against the back seat of the car on a hot day! Quote
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted July 14, 2016 Report Posted July 14, 2016 The Play won't do ABS, even with the heated platform upgrade?It can but the import costs and the size limits don't really make it worth it. Quote
