I recently acquired a 3D printer, and would like to replace the glued wood LED spacers with a 3D printed model. I was a tad sloppy with my original gluing, and had to shave the assemblies down to fit, resulting in a sub-par fit. Do you have a DXG or other document with accurate dimensions for the width, depth, and hole positions for the LEDs? Thank you ------------- |

A few people have created STL files for the colons, but I've been sloppy with keeping track of this, I did plan to host user-contributed designs somewhere sensible but haven't gotten around to it. The original files are in moshidraw format which probably isn't helpful, but the design of the colons is very simple: Rectangle of 12mm by 34.1mm 3mm holes at X,Y positions 5.075,22.7 and 6.925,11.4 The total thickness should be about 10.5mm but this varies with different suppliers of digits. ------------- |

Great, thank you! I've used the instructions to make two little blocks on my printer, and they work great. Here's the model https://makerworld.com/en/models/478075#profileId-389172 And here's the CAD, with a variable depth, should anyone want to adjust it to fit the depth of their digits: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/d5d05bc73afdb8e61a65246a/w/b6e15c0772dd821032763c93/e/b0c389369a03d226aef2874b?renderMode=0&uiState=665634a809092c1862753cf6 When printed with black or slightly translucent PETG, they look incredible Last edit by Paradox at 29 May 2024, 05:02 PM ------------- |
