Trash O Bot Carterpillar with magnetic arms

This little ‘Trash O Bot’ is a helper for your desktop.

You can put pencils in it or use it for your printer trash or something else.

This is the new design of my original Trash O Bot with different magnetic arms and functional carterpillar. If you had print the first Trash O Bot you can print now only the carterpillar - it is compatible for both bodies.

The ‘Trash O Bot’ is very easy to print. You can print nearly all of the parts without support, only the hinge roll on the backside of the head will print better with a little bit of support.

I have very good results with the following settings:

nozzle: 0,4mm

layer height: 0,16mm (0,2mm also works :-)

walls: 3

infill: 15%

If your printer is good calibrated you can put all the parts together without glue (except the chestplate) but for longer use it is better to fix the parts with a little bit of superglue.

Use magnets with size 5x1mm for all parts and glue them with a little bit (!) of superglue.

For connecting the chain use a piece of filament (1,75mm). To test your printer tolerances there is a “Teststück” of the chain. There are two different chains - the flat one (…Raupe-glatt.stl) is easier and faster to print.

There is an extra folder with all parts of the head separated for printing in different colors with a MMU.

If you want to customize the plate for the chest use the ‘Brustschild-clean’-stl and write on it with the Prusa Slicer 2.6.

It would a pleasure for me to see your makes!
