This model has several unique features including
- The threaded driver rods have a triangular cross-section which maximizing build surface contact while minimizing filament use and build time. This configuration ensures there are always 3 lines of contact 120 degrees apart to minimize backlash and wobble. Also, it is stronger then vertically built, threaded rods.
- Topology optimized design to reduce filament use while maintaining strength where required.
- Synchronized gear train to drive the movable jaw.
NOTE: Print the Test Sections before printing the vise to ensure you have the correct hotend temperature to allow the integral supports to be remove. I lowered the Prusa recommended temp for PLA by 15C.
Removing the Part/Integral Support parts from the Vise Body requires special care since they are used in the finished model. I used a thin blade to loosed the seams and then pried the parts up using a large Allen key.
The MSP (i.e. miscellaneous small parts) build was done with a color change after the first few layers. I used black for the face color and then switch to orange. This enhances the contrast of features on the gears and the drive rods.
