Printed Parts
It is recommended to print these parts in PLA at a 0.3mm layer height, 3 perimeters, 25% infill, and three top and bottom solid layers. It is also recommended to print HUB BOTTOM.stl, BOWDEN NUT.stl, and LOCK NUT.stl at a 0.2mm layer height due to the threads contained in these parts. HUB BOTTOM.stl should be printed with at least 50% infill as this part holds the whole assembly together in the center. Using these settings, it should take roughly 750-800 grams of PLA and depending on your slicing settings anywhere from 40-45 hrs to print.
