Workmate D-Clip (Leg spring) - REMIX

Due to the way Fusion works on imported converted meshes, sometimes you get weirdness (and occasionally even impossibility), and this one is a good example of weirdness. It left an incredibly thin layer of excess skin on the top and bottom of the model around one of my extrusions, and this even shows up in the slicer when you send the STL there. But don't worry, it's too thin for the slicer to convert into a printable area, so when you look at the sliced preview you'll see that the model is just fine.

PRINTING:

I used 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layers, 6 walls, infill 20% lines, support everywhere at 35% grid to support the lug inside the hook and the round peg, and a 2-line brim spaced at 0.7mm so it doesn't stick to the model but forces the slicer (I use Cura) to print the outside wall first intead of some fiddly little bits which could detach from the printbed. All other settings normal for TPU.

The Elegoo N3Pro isn't an expensive printer, but it's superb for my needs at the moment and prints Eryone TPU beautifully with little or no stringing, but it does have to print it SLOOOOOWLY i.e. 20mm/s for the main printing and 10mm/s for the first layer so expect this clip to take nearly 3 hours with the suggested settings!

FITTING:

Knock the leg attachment pin out by hitting its pointed end with a small hammer and then a rod or small screwdriver through the mounting holes - the pin is tightest through the clip so once you're clear of the clip it'll slide out easily. Pop the new clip in place and knock the pin back through, holding the clip firmly in position with your third hand :o)
