Originally designed for the Christmas Print Drive 2025 ran by Loyal Moses.

v38 / RC5 - I have increased the strength of the sprues and added an additional to the tail piece.
v39 / RC6 - I have increased the strength of the sprues by making them vertical and added a recess, for clean and safe removal. Cage also goes around the whole model for strength and to stop parts falling off easily.
v40 / RC7 - Final design of the sprues, making them strongest and clean to remove. Cage has also been thickened to make the model safer to transport.

I now have a THK version, with thicker frame and sprues, for use on printers that do not have a flexplate and require manual removal from the printer.

After assembly the rotors may be stiff, but the more you spin them the easier they should get.
