Here we go....a single channel stick with mechanical trim as an appetizer for the full stick that will come later.
Here an inside view Printed in:
0.14 mm layer
75% infill
ABS
Support & Raft
How it looks on the printer I have include in one folder the .stl files and in the second an assembly with all parts, parasolid and step, if you like to make changes.
I'm using regular size pots. All dowel pins are 1,5 mm and 6 mm long except the centering pin, if used which is 12mm and the pin in the spring retainer which should be 8-10 mm. I have the habit to size all the holes with a 1,5 mm drill bit and add a drop of CA in the holes where the pins are fix and if I need a smooth movement I size the holes with a 1,6 mm i.e. the hole in the spring retainer and the hole for the centering shaft in the frame so they can swivel nice and free. This is an advanced DIY project where you need to tinker some and also accept try and error. The included files have been adjusted to work in my machine but might need some adjustment as most machine are different, the easiest way is to use the scale factor if you are not familiar with some CAD program and able to open the included files which are generic.
For you info I'm running here a commercial machine type Zortrax M200 with their suggested filament.
For adjustment of center you might have to remove some material with a small file in the front bottom av the spring retainer, please see sketch.
Most screws are 2,4 mm self tapping screws except M3 screw to hold the trim wheel in location. The hole for the "Stick" is sized for an M3 screw also.
...and if it ain't on YouTube it doesn't exist and yes, I know that my hands look terrible full of cuts and bruises
