Editorial Analysis

Who knew that 3D printed parts could be made to such tight tolerances! I'm very new to experimenting with ABS acetone smoothing, so this was a great project to start with!\n\n3D Printer settings:\nNozzle diameter - 0.2mm\nFilament diameter - 1.75mm\nExtrusion width - 0.25mm\nLayer height - 0.1mm\nTop solid layers - 6\nBottom solid layers - 6\nSide walls - 6\nOutline direction - Outside-In\nInfill - 25% (honeycomb)\nMaterial - ABS\nNozzle temperature - 240C\nBed temperature - 60C\nCooling - OFF\nPrinting speed - 1800mm/minute (Correction from video)\n\nOther parts required:\n1pcs Spring (outside dia: 3.18mm, free length: 12.7mm, wire dia: 0.51mm)\n1pcs M4x30mm bolt (this can be any desired length)\n3pcs M2x20mm bolts\n1pc M2x bolt\n2pcs 604-ZZ bearings\n2pcs 3mm brass collars (these can be cut from brass tubing with inside diameter of 2mm and outside diameter of 3mm)\n8mm inside diameter PVC tubing (for air supply)\n\nA propeller of some sort will also be required, probably something around 5-8 inches in diameter will do the job.\n\n\nDisclaimer: If you wish you 3D print this engine, do so at your own risk. Working with high pressure air is DANGEROUS and I hold no responsibility for your actions. All parts were printed to the highest strength possible and I can't guarantee that your parts will be the same. So please test the engine behind a protective cover and only to low pressures below 30psi.\n\nSponsored by 3D Printz UK: https://3dprintz.co.uk/\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nWant to promote your company or product?
