Description

This thing is an extruder motor 'windmill' using Slice Engineering's official graphics files. It is intended for personal, non-commercial use. Enjoy.

In addition to windmill parts:

  • 8mm diameter x 3mm tall magnet
  • Crazy glue of some type
  • Printed magnet aligner ('MagAlign' included here)

Printing:

  • First layer, set up extruders to print the letters and logo first, then the disc
  • Best on flat print bed, not textured
  • If printing MagAlign piece at same time, use disc color/extruder
  • The 'e' is a separate file as I had to kern the 'ce' manually to match the logo
  • Place all disc objects in slicer then rotate 180 degrees x or y to print
  • Magnet alignment tool can be placed and printed as-is

Assembly:

  • Place MagAlign on surface with spokes down
  • Press in magnet in center circle flush with surface
  • Magnet should stick up inside about 2mm
  • Place windmill disc face down on surface
  • Flip over MagAlign and pre-fit over disc, then remove
  • Apply a small drop of glue to center of raised part on disc
  • Place/Press MagAlign w/magnet onto disc
  • Let dry according to glue directions
  • Remove MagAlign and place windmill on extruder

Note: If you chose to use Disc.3mf it was saved using PrusaSlicer 2.0.0
