00:00Hello and welcome back to another video. So I'll be printing something that isn't just like a test
00:04piece but something actually practical. I've on the memory card sliced up a model of like a screw
00:11and a spindle for it to go on which I'll be using just to hold some discs, some CDs and
00:17DVDs. They
00:17don't have enough cases so I thought rather than putting it on the part I could use that spindle
00:21to hold them together while I'm looking for a case. This one it's just like a screw thread and
00:27everything. I have disabled the larger base at the bottom as well as the support because that's
00:33going to make it difficult to actually screw it on as functional unless I want to try to
00:38bend a lot of time cleaning it. So we're going to see how that print actually goes. I'll put in
00:43the
00:44microSD card. There we go and we'll turn it on. Let's get that ready to go.
01:19So here's a part of its finished printing. There we go. Completely printed. No support to anything
01:26and no issues with different lines. Let's take this one off. This is our little nut for the spindle.
01:35A little bit of deformation at the bottom where it's not quite smooth.
01:42What is that filament? As you can see blue, red, sort of has a change between them. Could look
01:47interesting when you screw it on. Definitely going to have to clean the space plate up. It's got all that
01:54plastic there as well as the bit there. Not sure the best way to get those thin pieces off because
02:02it's not like a solid piece you can just pull off all in one go. Even if I bend it,
02:09it's still got really
02:11good adhesion. So I have to do slowly tearing. So it's tearing. So it's going to take a while to
02:17get all that off.
02:19The next time I print up, assuming this does work well, which I imagine it will, I'll probably print
02:25a couple of them. I've already got one of these extra nuts for the last print as well.
02:29So it can probably fit quite a few of those. Probably at least four of these on there with three
02:36nuts.
02:39Let's try this. See how good this thread is. There we go. The bottom here is slightly deformed,
02:46so now I have to use some sandpaper or something. But other than that,
02:50actually you might be able to push straight through.
02:53Yeah, it's very tight, but it is sort of working its way through. So I think
02:58if I do take that off and I use a bit of sandpaper in there, this should work
03:05quite well because it does work quite well. Also, if I just fill it up with discs, this is for
03:11discs
03:11all the way. It doesn't matter if it doesn't go down to the bottom because the discs are going to
03:17be
03:17in the way anyway. So let's try this with some GameCube discs. When you do this, you can have a
03:22tile. It all stays together and don't worry about one of the sides scratching because it only holds it
03:26in the center part. Obviously the discs come up against each other. That can cause problems. But for the
03:32most parts, it'll stop them from moving around as much. So that should stop them from scratching as
03:36much. I should put the spindle on. Obviously you want to tighten all the way down. That does work
03:43quite well. It's a little temporary storage while you're looking for some cases. So I've got some
03:48more of those spindles. Just a spindle by themselves. Four of those at the nut ready to go. This skirt,
03:55whatever it's called. I could get some of it up. I couldn't get the rest up. So what I'm hoping
03:59is
03:59if this prints, so when it does print, I just print on top of it and hopefully over time,
04:04and since I've disabled it, it'll slowly bring up little pieces every time the print happens to be
04:10on top of it. So let's put the SD card in. Connect to the power. And let's get this started.
04:33So
04:35so
04:54you
05:31You have to replace the filament, you can sort of see where that happens, it's a slight
05:36like misalignment where that happened, if you look at the inside you can sort of see more
05:39clearly you could when it was printing, not so much now, I imagine it's probably weaker
05:45there, so unlike the first one I did where it's just one full print, this one does have
05:50it replaced, and actually the colours seem to all be in alignment even though it did get
05:56replaced about here.
06:03There is a small difference there, even though the colours somehow all ended up being the same,
06:09let's take these off.
06:11I imagine it's probably a weak spot around where the filament was replaced, just try not
06:18to be too careful, maybe if I could try heating the lab until they start melting, so not so
06:23much they actually deform but it might join back together.
06:27Also a slight bit where it's slightly curved as well.
06:30It seems pretty strong, I'm not going to obviously push too hard, so you can see a join there.
06:39It turned out pretty well, then you can see blue to red transition, not too bad.
06:48So now I do have four of these falling at the top, at the actual spin or not the actual
06:54nut
06:54for them.
06:57For the moment I can probably use them just like this by probably printing some of the
07:02nuts, and if we look on here you can see where those were, you can see the outline, and
07:07you can see it did pull up some of the actual skirt from that previous one with it, so if
07:12I
07:12keep doing that I can keep doing it, but obviously these little tiny bits still, but I'm not
07:16sure how I'm going to get rid of those.
07:18And it does seem to be slowly damaging the black part of the actual material on the printing
07:26bed over time.
07:29So it could be slightly close, but it doesn't seem like it's got any black bits that are
07:32still pulling up.
07:34I'm not sure about that, so I'll leave this video here.
07:36If you like the visual and like the video, comment down below your thoughts, and if you
07:38see that I'm just trying to see me like this in the future.
07:40things are old.
08:00I'll see you later.
