Fun with 3D Printers

[Campcreek12]

You guys make sure you add your designs to thingiverse. There's a ton of good stuff on there to print free of charge. btw prusa makes a good printer.

Is there a way for you guys to share your designs to a forum or even sell the design blueprint? Some good ideas on here

Another project off the printer. Made a universal phone scope. Works with any phone and spotter combo that me and my hunting buddies have. The plan came off of Thingverse made by another user.

Anybody taking requests? I need an adapter that on top connects to a Picatinny rail and on the bottom connects to an ARCA tripod head. What's your price?

If you make the design and pay for shipping ill print you something if its small

I might be able to help you here if you could sketch up what your looking for. I have designed and made a couple parts that clip to a picatinny rail before. I'm not on here that much anymore but I'll check back later.

So what are the recommendations for 3d printers? Lets say a few with different price ranges. $500/ $1000/ and $1500. Looking to get into this but there are so many options to narrow down.

Honestly start with a cheaper one. My ender 3 and cr10 can do pretty much everything I ever need. The more you pay the less tinkering you have to do but I enjoy that part. Most of the time it's bullet proof

Get one with a heated bed and a cooling fan. Mine was $500 (used) and it has a dual Extruder that I have never used so far. But the heated bed will give you more filament options. The cheaper ones usually need a few mods to make them more rigid. For what I have used mine for, I could probably have gotten away with a cheaper unit.

Thank you!

You guys have inspired me. I couldn't find a lightweight, low-profile, cheap mount to put my binoculars on my tripod, so I spent some time over the weekend designing this one. I'm happy with how it turned out so far. We'll find out next hunting season if ABS is durable enough for hunting use.

Cults3D was easier for me to create an account with than Thingiverse. I added a "Rokslide" tag to this design. Maybe that will catch on?

That is slick!

How many slots do you want on the Picatinny rail?

Recently bought a used QIDI X-Pro 3D printer and have been messing around with TinkerCAD.

Decided to revamp my trekking pole tripod adapter and made up a mount for my outdoorsman bino adapter along with a quick switch plate and lens cover for compact spotter

Also made a window mount for smaller optics (no 4lb spotters allowed on my windows)

Everything was printed with PETG so it should last for a long time and be fine with outside / rainy conditions.

awesome~!

Those Ender printers seem popular from all the YouTube videos I have watched. I don't thinknyou can go wrong with it.

Just bought this one : Creality CR-10S Pro V2 3D Printer with BL Touch Auto-Level, Touch Screen, Large Build Volume. Did a lot of research.

Ok, I picked up one of the Ender 3's. Anyone have some cool files they'd care to share?
