3D printers for airgun parts??

[Firewalker]

I ordered the same setup its getting delivered thursday, seems like a big improvement over my Vyper.
You must have done the founders deal they did from jan 2 to the 12th

Yupper! Good price, about 1/2 the price of the same printer Bambu offers.

It will be my PETG dedicated printer. The Ender will continue to sling PLA.

A Shroud for the rapid mk2. With the bottle so close it was a challenge to get things correct. Working on the final piece to make it solid.

Thinking of burlap, cotton wool, or something else stuffed in the sections. Will end up gluing all together once happy.

Well just tested the unit and it is stupid quiet! Going to add material inside the units, and I have to modify the end unit, but as it sits I am happy.

Was worried that the exit hole at .250 would be to tight being 5" from the muzzle......but zero issue. No clipping or marks on the plastic. The test was with the final addition empty with no baffles or anything, just an end cap.

It is a foaming type of filament for rc planes.

Speaking of TC planes, Orca slicer just went Beta with thier 2D wing settings for the lightest infill ever!

I'll print a wing when the S1 arrives to see what the weight ends up as.

The only issues I've had with the printer is getting it found on my network, I have it out in my shop so its remote print and not a strong wireless signal. So far the prints have been excellent.

This project is finished and ready for the next one!
