StellaTariche Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Download that file from the Thingiverse website. Import it into your 3D printer software (called a “slicer”). Prep the file for printing (you’ll need a little practice on how to configure the 3D printer settings: temperature, speed, infill, etc). Dump to a memory card. Put memory card in printer. Print (about 12 hours for this part size and complexity). Remove, use as is, or spray high fill primer, sand, paint. Seems complicated, but practice on a few simple prints, and you’ll get it. *Very* useful for making custom RV parts if you can also create in 3D CAD software.

I’m going to start researching printers and all things associated. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishman1 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I just bought a needed white ‘snail’ Colorado end cap to replace my broken one on eBay for $70.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
