Big Walk Item Finder

SO, there are a few things you should know about this model before you start: 

• This was designed to be fully printable without an AMS or MMU (automatic color switchers). Although the main body of the Finder benefits from this, it's only about 11 color changes and could be done with some clever g-code pauses on a single-color printer.

• The screws used are 25mm M4 screws, with 6mm M4 heat-set threaded inserts. This is the first thing I've ever used heat-set inserts on. They sort of worked, but didn't end up aligned properly. the screws can be just as easily glued in, and then the plates glued onto the main box.

• There are some small holes scattered throughout the model. You can use little cuts of filament in them to help you align the parts for gluing. The holes in the main box go all the way through (because I got lazy when modeling them), so glue the cutoffs into the handle holes first. 

• What is lens flocking? It's a dark coating or material applied to the inside walls of a lens to prevent internal reflections and artifacts.

• Definitely print with supports. If the box is printed vertically, it only needs supports for the endplate mounts on one end. 

• Pretty much everything is glue together with your adhesive of choice. I used superglue.
