3D Printing

For fun I do enjoy 3D printing with my Creality printers. I currently own a Ender Pro 3 as well as a Ender 5 Plus. They are very capable printers and although they don't have the new bells and whistles of latest generation printers, they still allow me to design and fabricate parts.

Software​

I use a combination of the following programs when designing and printing:

  • Shapr3D
  • Fusion 360
  • Ultimaker Cura

Latest Part​

I have a Roughhouse 50 Moped and wanted to install an air scoop to increase air flow through the engine sleeve to reduce heat. The scoop I bought had mounts in the wrong direction and it just didn't fit so I designed an adapter to fit. It took about 5 iterations but the final part worked quite well.
