Its a little different because it’s even more beefed up from the one in the pics. I currently have 2 ready to ship to go out Monday if anyone is interested.

Nice work man!! When we get to starting to throw the interior back together, I will be reaching out to you!

What's great about this, is you are the manufacturer... so unless your printer breaks and you don't want to get another one, I don't have a fear of it not being available in a few months!! (I have bought SO MUCH STUFF because of that fear.... missed out one too many times)



What’s also nice is if one of the parts break I can reprint the replacement part easily.

Yeah if the design has changed a little -- even knowing it won't impact function and makes it stronger, if you have a chance to toss up a few new pictures, I know folks would appreciate it! If you are having issues and can text or email me the pictures, I can get them up for you.

Looks great. My only concern would be how do you keep the metal bolt inserts from loosening and free spinning after a few heat cycles?
mmeyer86gt/gtp AUG 12, 09:02 AM
The material is abs and the interior never gets hot enough to melt the abs. So i dont understand the heat cycle thing. There is a threaded heat set insert that the machined bolt goes into.

It seems like the plastic would expand and contract over time (like the stock plastic ones) and instead of what happens with the stock where the bolt holes crack, with your design the cavity where the metal insert goes into the plastic would expand contract and result in the insert free spinning and/or even pulling out.

Only way to know will be the test of time! And hey, if it does happen, we now know we can get a replacement! Outside of metal, any part will degrade with time (heck, even metal now that I think of it...)
