Help Needed - 3D Printing

[DBK]

SOLVED - SEE POSTS #3 & #4

The feet on our Endless Breeze fan are both cracked. I could bodge a repair or even use wood to replace them but I've found a link to a file for a 3D printed replacement.

Is there anyone here who would be prepared to print me a pair? Obviously I will cover all costs involved.

I can print these for you, would you like them in white, black, red or blue?

Adam, that's super kind, white would match the rest of the fan. I'll drop you a PM.

Out of interest AdamH what material do you use for printing things like this?

 

[AdamH]

Currently printing in PETG it can withstand heat better than the common PLA materials and is a little more flexible.
I am looking to print in other materials in the future (ABS, TPU and Carbon fibre reinforced)

ive been printing some things in glass fibre petg - they are pretty tolerant re heat, i printed some mug/cup holders in PLA and put them in the dishwasher and they became deformed, in PETG glass fibre they retained their shape .....

Thanks to the very kind help from AdamH our Endless Breeze has found its feet, so to speak. I'm impressed by how smooth the finish is on them, they could almost have been molded, not printed.

Many thanks Adam! Donation to Cancer Research made.
