All files are in .3mf (because its far superior to .stl). Thingiverse requires a .stl file though, so I added my retraction calibration .stl to the list.
Anyways, took ekaggrats .3dm file and heavily remixed it.
- Solid rack so that print is quicker with WAY less perimeters (plastic weight is approx. same when printed with 5-10% gyroid infill).
- Made a base that is solid with a 1cm square grid on it for alignment and size purposes.
- Added some ribs to the wheels just incase someone reefs on the wheel too hard and rips the layers apart as well as a depth stop that rides against the pillow blocks.
- Fixed the pillow blocks to be... not garbo. Pillow blocks and wheels now have a conical centering system with no tightening needed as friction is achieved via the rear of the rack.
- Extended the scope carriage out to be near the center of the pad (its not quite center... i need to fix that later).
All this because the base stand of my microscope was a steaming pile of guano and I couldnt effectively use it for doing my micro-soldering.

Yes
Resolution:
.2
Infill:
10% Gyroid
Filament: Overture / 3DSolutech PETG/PLA Space Gray / Translucent Blue
Notes:
Printed whole thing at 0.2 layer height. All gray parts are PETG, Blue is PLA. Printed the Rack on its back so that the back is smooth to allow using a piece of paper as a friction plate. 2-3 perimeters with low infill helps save on plastic.
