Adding Misumi shoulder bolt mods for v2.4

Open randellhodges opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

  • [X] The mod, firmware configuration or slicer profile is in the correct category folder. Printable mods go to printer_mods/, firmware configurations go to firmware_configurations/, slicer profiles go to slicer_profiles/. Create a subfolder with your name, and place the mods in a subfolder with a descriptive name within that folder, e.g.: /printer_mods/FHeilmann/flux_capacitor
  • [X] Folders names MUST NOT contain spaces. If possible, make sure file names also do not contain any spaces.
  • [X] For each mod, add a small README.md file to its folder with a short description of what the mod accomplishes. This readme can be used to add pictures, give assembly instructions or specify a bill of materials if the mod requires additional hardware.
  • [X] The PR modifies the top-level README.md of the category folder adding the contribution to the table. Read the top part of the file for instructions on how to do this. Please preserve the alphabetical ordering while adding new rows. Make sure to fill out the compatibility matrix to indicate which versions of the Voron printer the submission is compatible with.
  • [X] The mod/configuration/profile has been tested by the person submitting the mod and/or other Voron users. Make sure to add information about how the mod was tested below.
  • [X] The mod is not merely a slight modification of an official Voron part, configuration or profile (i.e. an official Voron part with a few mm added or removed or a slicer profile which only modifies a few values). (When in doubt, contact one of the admins in the Voron discord before submitting the PR)
  • [X] Submitted STLs are printable without support. (If the mod does not meet this criterion join the Voron discord and ask the other users for advice on how to modify the mod such that it does not require supports)
  • [X] Submitted STL files are not corrupt. (This can be tested by opening the STL in PrusaSlicer and checking if mesh errors are reported.)
  • [X] Submitted STL files are oriented and scaled properly for printing.
  • [X] Submitted firmware configs or slicer profiles contain no sensitive data (e.g. API keys).

Which mods/configurations/profiles are added by this PR?

An alternative to the pins mod, this uses Misumi shoulder bolts.

Printed and used on my printer for the past year

Screenshots (if appropriate)

Further notes

This was mentioned in various Discord channels and used by a few people but I forgot to actually submit a pull request.

All the STL's have no errors, The CAD is included.

This fell off my radar. I did even notice the "Action required by maintainers" label until jlas commented. What is required? I guess maybe that since this was originally done for the first released version of 2.4, maybe it is sort of out of date?

@randellhodges action required by maintainers means we have something to do to finish up the PR, not you. Sorry this has sat so long.

Do you know if this is compatible with v2.4r2?

cbc02009 avatar Jul 17 '22 20:07 cbc02009

I do not know. I haven't looked at all the changes between initial 2.4 release and subsequent r1 and r2 releases. I sold the printer that I did this mod to, and my new one uses the pin mod instead.

If you still want to submit this mod I would just add a bolded warning in the readme that this mod was only tested with r1 and may not work with r2.

Good idea. I'll get it updated soon and let you know.

@randellhodges as there was no activity for 1 year I'm closing this PR. If you'd still like to submit your mod, please reach out to me on discord (Haribro)
