3D printed soap holders using lattice structures
Recent 3D prints experimenting with lattice structure and how well they print in PETG on the QIDI X-Plus.
The .STL files imported into the QIDI X-Plus slicer software ready to be exported as .gcode.
Print time are too long at over 6 hours. Changing out the 0.4mm nozzle to a 0.6mm nozzle and printing with a 0.3mm layer height will help.
Some 3D renders using the Corona render engine and utilising glass materials.

Low profile cable guides for RASA8
These 3D printed cable guides are part a “fine tuning” process to improve the performance and handling of the RASA8 telescope.
The blue cable guide on the photo below was machined in foam, the red one 3D printed with PETG on the QIDI MAX.
Additional 3D printed cable guides attached below the camera to minimize diffraction spike around bright stars.

Stay tuned for how these parts were designed and 3D printed
You can see some of the astrophotography images taken with the RASA8 around South East Queensland in the gallery.
