Lots of buckets out there,  but I wanted something easy to print, hold a lot of purge,  not block the psu venting and easy to grab to dump.   

Handle needs heated inserts M3  5mm OD x5mm length.  M3x6mm screws.  The other option is to just drill out the holes in the bucket and use screws and nuts.  

There is a built in support with .3mm spacing.  So you can print this up to .30 layer height and still should be able to release the support. 

I printed it on the AD5x  default PLA .24 profile. 

 

-I updated the bin to have the option of adding 3 magnets on the front lip to keep the bin up against the printer.  My test print was press fit, but glue may or not be needed to hold the magnets in. 

 

Hardware :

  • 2 x M3x5mm OD x 4mm L  heated Inserts
  • 2x  M3x6mm screw

Handle Option with no heated inserts:

  • 2x  m3x10mm screws  nuts and washers .   Screw through the bucket wall. its only 1mm thick behind the heatset hole. 

Added Magnet Option:

  •  3x  6mm diameter x 3mm thick magnets
