Lasers]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/122475/#p122475 That's good news then - I suppose better to be tight and can be sanded down a bit if needed!

Thanks for the feedback smile

Lasers]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/122473/#p122473 I have printed the Armless ones and they fit OK - very tight connecting to the left and right laser arms, but good.

Thanks so much.
Now waiting on motor supply - ordered but now on back order.

I'll print them and let you know how I go.

Lasers]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/122351/#p122351 oh the parts the other guy made stl for acrylic kit. I needed yours for my DIY case. I am going to print and try the ones you made next without the extra arms for tie rod. I just want the lasers with focus for finer line.

I am printing the last one now but the part that slips into arm support is 2x thicker than normal. are the new files thinner there?

Which part do you mean?

I measured the thickness off the STL file for the DIY kit as 3.75mm which is the same as the files??

As I have the laser version I cannot test to see if it all fits ok - I can tweak the 123 files if needed to make new STL files.

2 types are in the RAR folder - 2 with the extra arms for fitting turnbuckles onto, and 2 standard holders.

Hope they fit ok smile

Lasers]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/122221/#p122221 I am attempting to make the Atlas 3d , I have existing Raspberry Pi B1 and Lasers and have printed most of the items required. I realised after printing the laser holder that they would be to small. I don't have much experience with drawing packages but this may be an incentive to learn more. I was hoping some one else had the same issue previously and solved it. I am in the process of combining the camera arm and half a cross beam with a screw to give me something that may work. Otherwise I start learning more about drawing packages (not a bad thing really). I intend to make the circuit using strip board as I am not set up for PCB production.
I have been thinking about this project for some time but open heart surgery has slowed me down, but only for a short while, am starting to pick up the pace again.

Using Cocoon 3d Printer (rebadged Wanhao Duplicator 3) improved table leveling, adjustable Z endstop, X axis belt relief roller.

Lasers]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/122206/#p122206 a set was made for the Acrylic kit but I have not printed them yet to see if they will fit slots on Arms. I also got a pair of the lasers with focus for beam width to try. the wires are short so have to splice the thin things some how.

I am just a newbie and I was wondering if anyone has a modified stl file for a laser holder that can hold a 12mm diam laser.
