Printing the actual fingerboard strips are a bit more of a challenge than the test strips, because the top surface is curved. Layer height 0.1mm, Infill Density 70%, Pattern: Triangles.
EStrip_Short.stl E strip is on a bit of an angle, so I had to rotate it flat in Cura. The problem is, is that it is difficult to tell if it’s rotated properly or not. There is a bit of overhangs inside the tracks that need to be picked out. It’s also a little on the rough side as it gets closer to the nut end, but not too bad. The header hole is perfect. The resistance fluctuates a lot at the ends. 20MW Close: 0 Mid: 0 End:0 2MW Close: 0.002 Mid: 0.006 End: 0.009 200KW Close: 1.7 Mid: 5.0 End: 8.3 20KW Close: 1.46 Mid: 5.3 End: 9.8 2kW: 0L GStrip_Short.stl Turned out similarly to the E. I think the overhangs are a bit better though. 20MW Close: 0 Mid: 0 End:0 2MW Close: 0.001 Mid: 0.004 End: 0.07 200KW Close: 2.2 Mid: 3.9 End: 6.8 20KW Close: 1.45 Mid: 4.31 End: 6.91 2kW: 0L DStrip_Short.stl This is better than the G and E strips. Probably because the bottom is flatter. It was made with support checked off. 20MW Close: 0 Mid: 0 End:0.01 2MW Close: 0.003 Mid: 0.005 End: 0.009 200KW Close: 3.5 Mid: 5.7 End: 8.7 20KW Close: 1.78 Mid: 5.33 End: 9.25 2kW: 0L AStrip_Short.stl First time I printed, it turned out ok. However, the nut end was peeling off the build plate and it not useable. I’ll try again with it flipped over. The flipped over orientation was fine. I don’t know what went wrong before, because I printed all the other strips this way before. I tested the 2nd print, not the first print. 20MW Close: 0 Mid: 0 End:0 2MW Close: 0.001 Mid: 0.003 End: 0.009 200KW Close: 1.5 Mid: 4.0 End: 8.3 20KW Close: 1.36 Mid: 4.27 End: 8.32 2kW: 0L
