Find Setting: In the "Prepare" tab, search for "spiral" in the settings or look under "Special Modes".
Activate: Check the box for "Spiralize Outer Contour".
Set bottom solid layers to 3 layers.

I encourage you to use Orca Slicer as it is more advanced.

On the Dueling Sabers. I can send you the stls but there are settings that are specific to each part. What slicer are you using? I used Orca Slicer to make the 3mfs. if you're still having problems, please give your email and I'll send you the stls.

I figured it out...one is supported and the other is not! Thanks

Thanks!

I just had a request for smaller dial that would fit on a 220x220mm bed. If you could give me your email, I'd send you an even smaller dial that would fit your Prusa Mini. The hands would also be shorter.

I just tried to make it fit a 180 x180 plate but it would be too small that the top numerals will collide. See image here - https://imgur.com/a/reduced-dial-180x180-BusMR1O

I could split the dial in sections and place alignment holes where you can use short pieces of filament as alignment pins. and glue the face if you like. Since the files in the 3mf are step files, you can also do it yourself in CAD if you can. Let me know

what model are you referring to?

Yet Another Quick Change Toilet Paper Roll Holder - Hood

Scusa lo so io cosa devo chiedere
Yet Another Quick Change Toilet Paper Roll Holder - Hood

I am sorry. I think I would rather not get involved with your family affairs.

Please download the zip file on your PC or Mac. You can then unzip it and it will contain all the files (there are several files arranged in folders to accomodate different spool sizes).

If you are still having trouble, plese give me your email address and I will send unzipped files.

In the Assembly Guide.pdf :
- 2 pcs coil springs commonly found in retractable pens or more commonly called click ball pens. 4.3~4.5mm outside diameter, 25~30mm long.

Insert them in the groove of the Arm as shown in the video - https://youtu.be/eslTlW9j2jc

Paper towel and Toilet Paper Arm and Pin are the same so springs are the same.

Thanks I'll give that a try. Suprised that size spring doesn't come in the assorted spring kit that I bought.

I'm sorry but which model are you referring to? Cults messages are not linked to models unless you comment on them.

Good day 🌞.. Here is the model number - 230312. Best regards, Oleg

I see. The Honeycomb Lampshade. If you check carefully, I have included the .3mf file. It's fully parametric so you can customize the size and dimensions as you like using Autodesk Fusion 360.

In Cura, VASE mode is called Spiralize Outer Contour. Here, you can set how many bottom solid layers your model should start with. Also, use brim to make sure the "waves" adhere to the print bed.

In the Wave Lamp shade.stl, the bottom solid layers should be 2mm. For example, if your layer height is 0.2mm, you can set it to 10 layers (0.2mm x 10 = 2mm)

I hope this is solves your problem and enjoy the Wave Lamp.

On your suggestion from aliexpress....
Options of thread shafts:
The 12.4mm thread shaft... (with 4.5mm threaded part) option?

Thanks

This is the closest I have found for amazon US. https://amzn.to/459nngS

It is slightly longer but the important part is the hour and minute shaft diameters. If it sticks out of the clock face too much, we can make a spacer to shim the movement slightly backward to align the gears.
Let me know so I can make a spacer with the right thickness for you.

Thank you for your interest in my roll holder. I've made changes to accept professional roll of 190mm diameter x 180mm width. See CAD image here https://imgur.com/a/WCELhm6

If ths is ok, I will update the creation to include this new bracket.

Is this the shelf TP holder? Can you send a picture of the broken pin?

https://ibb.co/p1ftwth

When installed, the clips on the pin should not be under any stress. The only time it should bend is when it is being inserted right before it clicks. Inserting it should not require a lot of force. A thumb or two should be enough. The pin diameter is slightly smaller than the socket. If you move it sideways, it should have a slight wiggle. See video below

From your photo, it seems you have a slight over-extrusion and inconsistent line width. You may want to reduce flow to compensate and/or sand the walls smooth. If it’s still too tight, try to scale the pin and reduce XY to around 97%. Also clear the gap and remove strings between clips so there is no obstruction.

Also, do the pins break on both brackets? If it only happens on one, there could be something inside the socket that’s stressing the clips when ithe pin is nstalled.

See videos and photos below

I hope this helps.

I see. What is your spool width?

It is for the shelf type tp holder right? https://cults3d.com/:1221402

Spool measures at 101.6mm or 4 inches roughly and correct its for the shelf tp holder. Thanks for the quick response

I added 10mm to the arms. Any shorter and the spool will still fall out if you move the roll to one side. Please give me your email and I'll send you the edited arms.

Cderose13@gmail.com

Sent! Let me know if it works.

Works perfect! Thank you

Great! Glad to hear that.

Just updated yesterday. https://cults3d.com/:616493

Sí, eso ya lo sé.
Mi pregunta es, tengo que volver a comprar los archivos? yo tengo su versión antigua....

Yes I already know that.
My question is, do I have to buy the files again? I have the old version...

To download a file you have already downloaded it’s really easy. Connect on Cults with your logins, go to your personal account to see all your orders: https://cults3d.com/en/orders. Click on the purple “Download” button on each line, at the right of the page and download your ZIP files by clicking on the “Get your models” button

Muchas gracias!!
Sugerencia, sería posible añadir una barra que apoye el royo de papel para poder partir el papel?
Ahora su diseño, hay que tirar del papel para romperlo, creo que sería más practico añadiendo una barra o algo para que sea más fácil romper el papel.
De antemano, muchas gracias por su diseño!!

Thank you so much!!
Suggestion, would it be possible to add a bar that supports the roll of paper to be able to split the paper?
Now its design, you have to pull the paper to tear it, I think it would be more practical to add a bar or something to make it easier to tear the paper.
In advance, thank you very much for your design!!

You are welcome.

I will think of something.

In the meantime, watch the .gif and try to copy my paper tearing technique - gently pull the paper until the perforation is just a little above the arms, then quickly pull sideways and inward to the wall very quickly)

Sí, es lo que hago, pero a veces se va más de una servilleta y se quedan como 4 o 5 fuera del royo y tienes que recoger en el royo para volver a ponerlo bien.
Muchas gracias por escuchar sugerencias!
Estaré atenta

Yes, that's what I do, but sometimes more than one napkin goes away and about 4 or 5 remain outside the royo and you have to pick it up in the royo to put it back correctly.
Thank you very much for listening to suggestions!
I will be attentive

It has taken a long time but I finally updated the design. I have inlcuded a hood as you suggested.
I hope you like the new version. https://cults3d.com/:616493

Oh thank you very much! I print it right away!
Thank you for taking my comment into account!
Greetings!

oohhh Muchas gracias! De inmediato lo imprimo!
Gracias por tomar mi comentario en cuenta!
Saludos!

Thank you for your purchase!
On Amazon, you can use https://a.co/d/7exG8Nt or https://a.co/d/7ri1uJ0

The threaded shaft should be 4.5mm long. As the clock face/chasis is only 3mm thick, it should fit without problems. Also, the rubber washer has a recess in the middle on one side and that should be placed facing the movement body.

As for the hands not falling together at the same time at 12 o'clock, take time to fine tune the placement of the minute spiral. In your case, the minute spiral is 30 seconds late so the hour hand falls sooner. Remove the minute spiral and replace it with an ever so slightly forward position (about 3 degress clockwise if the error is 30 seconds). Lift the hands up unti the spirals clear the pawls and adjust the clock to a few minutes before 12 o'clock. Wait and observe until they both fall at the same time at 12 o'clock. It may take several trial and error attempts to get this right.

Biggest piece is the Chassis / Face: around 210mm x 150mm
For those with smaller build plate, a split Chassis/Face can be printed on a 150mm x 150mm or 150mm diameter (delta) print bed. The split pieces can be aligned using a pair short (~5mm) piece of 1.75mm filament alignment pins. They can then be glued using CA glue.

Thank you for choosing my design.

I have no experience using CraftCloud,but if you can, give them a note about the chassis to have filament color change at the layer above 3mm from white to black. It may also be helpful if tou give them the link as a guide.

Oh, don't forget to check out the included Assembly Guide.pdf for more details.

Is there a company (like CraftCloud) that you are familiar with and could recommend?
Someone who could print the parts and send them to me?
I don't have, or have access to, a 3D printer.
I really appreciate your assistance.

I'm sorry but I've never tried 3d prnting services so I can't make any recommendations. You can look into the large ones https://all3dp.com/1/best-online-3d-printing-service-3d-print-services/

You can also try to google "3d printing services near me" for services near your location.

Also, there is also a large community on reddit where you can request 3d printing of the clock parts. Please check out https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprintmything/

You are the first to say the pins are too tight. Now I made Pins loose fit.stl - diameter 1mm smaller
But I suggest you check your printer calibration with this test - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:342198

too wide? make it shorter? https://imgur.com/a/OtYlz7V

Made and uploaded new Bracket 120mm.stl. Please download again and check if ok.

en españa los rollos son de 10cm seria mejor bajarlo 2cm total 11cm gracias

Added Bracket 110mm.stl

Thank you very much. This is what I have with me now. Please check if they are the same. https://imgur.com/a/VBIKh3E

Yes, this one can work

I have a better idea. I will just make the hour body thinner and minute body thicker by 3mm. Assemble exactly the same way and no more extra parts to glue.

I have updated the creation. You can now download STLs for 28mm shaft

Thanks for it

You are welcome!

Thank you!
