MK4 NEXTRUDER gear box visible

This is a remix of the original PG-case pg-case-R3.stl to make planetary gear visible.

It is printed from the Prusament PC Blend Carbon Fiber Black on the Smooth PEI Steel Sheet - this works even on 50°C temperature.

You need a small piece of any clear Foil 0,5mm (PVC, PET-G, Polycarbonate or Lexan).

Workflow:

1. Print the Nextruder_window_template_0.2mm_PLA_MK4IS_7m_3,7g.gcode
2. Cut window from the clear foil according the template.
3. Start printing of the Nextruder_window_body_0.2mm_PC_MK4IS_18m_4,5g.gcode. It will be stopped on the level 1.2 mm.
4. Insert the window foil to the body. No glue is necessary.
5. Finish printing - the front disc is not used, it is a print support only.
6. Transplant the Spacer 13x24x2,5 (plastic ring) from the old PG-case to the new one.
7. Cover the planetary gear and secure the PG-case with three M3x25 screws. Do not overtighten the screws!
8. Do not forget to do a gear box calibration on the end.

That is all.
