Re: Suggested upgrades for the UMO?

The one I printed (long ago), had a curve in the shape to match the Bowden tube !

Re: Suggested upgrades for the UMO?

Use this Bowden Clamp, to get easy access to the filament stuck, or if you want to do an Atomic :)

Re: Modified UM original

It was a good choice to have the sides closed, that is what I should have done :)
and with an UM2 printhead ?, does it really make a difference ?

Re: Show off My latest Print

Yes a lot of Dredd influence :)

With the Brass / Bronzefill, they'll probably be more heavy, but it would also be more labor intensive to get the same look,
and more expensive ;-)

I love to paint objects, especially scaled objects :)

Re: UMO Direct pancake drive

Funny :), I was thinking about the old forum posting about direct feeder :)

would you think the motor would also be powerful enough for 2.85mm ?
and how much total height would you lose with the extra height of the printhead ?

Re: Modified UM original

- I changed the feed at an angle so it is better accessible from the side. - The alum cross sections really helped with vibrations, the acrylic is still too flexible at that height. - the rubbers were cut by hand, and some sharpened brass pipes to cut the holes, they really cut the high pitch noise ...

Modified UM original

As an idea to show what other users have done to modify their UM, and so here is mine It started as a normal classic UM, and was able get my hands on acrylic parts, the fit of those parts were not as good as I wanted, and I had to adjust the parts here and there :) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/...

Re: Show off My latest Print

They are hand size, and comparable to police badges, the finishing was pretty easy, just sanding, and a lot of primer/filler, the colors were done with Humbrol paint, and lot a drybrushing, and highlighting. the chrome version was just a lot (too much) filler primer, and fat layer of chrome spray pa...

Re: Show off My latest Print

It is a neat idea, but most of my work is for show only,

The finished gun will probably be molded when finished, and the resin made heavy, so it feels real in hand :)

I have a heavily modified UM original, and was wondering, is it ok to post in the standard UM original page,
or would it be an idea to have a separate place for (heavily) modified UM's ?

Show off My latest Print

Wow, am I the first to kick this off 8-) I must say I rather like the way we post our latest print in one big forum post, instead of everybody doing his own subject posting, this gives a fun overview, and is more easy to discuss and commend ones work :) so Here I go... This is part of an ongoing pro...
