  • 3D Printer Anyone?

    I discovered the latch for my hazard door on the AR is broken (weird, since I never opened it. I blame the dog.)

    I came across a 3D design to replace it, if I could only find a friend with a 3D printer...

                  There's apparently one at the Edmonton Public Library. I need one of these latches too.

                  I think it's pretty amazing technology and am surprised it hasn't taken off that fast yet, but I'm sure it'll continue to catch on.

                    If you go to the library and print a few copies, there's a few bucks in it for you!

                      Price goes down significantly with quantity. You could probably get a group buy going

                        The cost at the Stanley A. Milner Library is dirt cheap!! Only $0.10 per gram for the filament. Not sure how much the latch weighs but can't be much more that 30 grams so only 3 bucks.

                          There was a site I came across recently you would give them the 3d design and they ship it out to you

                            Had a friend print me one. Not a perfect fit but it works.

                              FYI I finally got around going down to the EPL and I got them to make me a few, but the wait list / que is like 2 weeks. YKallroad, when I get them in my hands and make sure they work, i'll let you know and I can send one your way
