Hello,

I received my first personnal 3D printer 2 days ago, and I noticed that we do not have anywhere to speak about that.
I'm pretty sure most of you might be interested in this topic since it's basically 3D modeling, but for real-life applications :v

I'll just start this topic with something I made today !

I'm currently preparing a move and I need to fix few stuff before I leave my appartment.
The shower palm holder in my bathroom got broken recently, because it's made out of crappy plastic. I don't have the tools needed to make holes in a tiling wall, so I have to stick with the existing ones and I'm pretty sure I will not be able to find the same part with the same sizes.

So I decided to take the brocken plastic part and make a simple 3D model of it :

And then, I basically printed it with my brand new Creality CR-10S :

(Original broken part on the left - 3D printed part on the right)

Then, from the first try it just worked, I attached it to the wall with the original screws :

And I added the original plastic cover that clips onto the 3D printed part and hides the system :

And it just worked perfectly fine :D

This is really boring and simple so if you have anything to show, maybe share it here for everyone to see it !

I'll try to make something better looking for the next one :)

Sculpteo is really nice, and their prices are really low for the kind of technology they use !

Yeah it's a great compagny and i'm pretty sure they have a bright future :)

Fans need more RGB...:D

But seriously, this is nice. Good job

And to ease your confusion about being spotlighted, it simply means @FMPONE added your thread to the spotlight on the front page, where it is now visible on the top bar under the mapcore logo for more exposure and for everyone to see it. we reserve the spotlight for worthy threads/posts/articles, and this thread falls under this.

Thanks,

Well this is a very rough V1, there are issues I'd like to solve in the future (like adding a ON/OFF button for example), so why not add RGB fans xD

Yes that's what I understood, it's just not that worthy, it's a simple project, maps deserve to be up there ^^

There are other people who did it before me, it's just that I felt I could do better (using standard 40mm fans, using 2 fans and pulling air from the inside instead of from the frunk which is useless)
