Made myself a Boro Rack!

[peps1]

The joys of 3D printing.....Wanted a Boro Rack, so made a Boro Rack!

Wanted one I could store tanks WITH bridges in them as frankly starting out I'm going to have far more bridges and tanks Vs mods to keep them in!

Would love to hear what other people would have if they were designing their own?

Waiting on a few more tanks to arrive and will work out if my tolerance is good, and will upload the .stl to Thingiverse if anyone wanted to print their own.

Nice work. @Vapaneezer Scrooge has done some of his own.

Will get the Cthulhu AIO one up as soon as I get my one in the post to confirm the measurements.

Know nothing about 3D printing but have seen some printed items that to be honest look a bit rough, but yours look really good, can I ask what machine you are using @peps1.

Sure, I'm using probably the cheapest 3D printer I own and one of the cheapest ones you can get called the Crality Ender 3 (cost between £100-£160)...I have this one dedicated to printing ABS plastic, a fussy but impact and heat resistant plastic, that needs to be printed in a box to keep the ambient temperature high. and really good for mechanical parts. I mainly use it for printing other printers.....its a little addictive.



At the end of the day we have got to the point where a £100 printer can print as well as a £2000 printer, it's all about tuning your settings.

Thanks for that, very interesting! I'll need to look into this some more.

I've made quite a few BB stands, turns out the individual ones are more handy for the coffee table

I love that you included a space for a coin to tighten/loosen the 510 drip tip adaptor. Nice work.

Wow that's great work man! Are there any files available so that I can ask my friend to print it for me?
