Tubular chain 25-175cm (10-69in)
Print Profile(9)




Description
ATTENTION: BEFORE PRINTING, CLEAN THE BED WELL AND PERFORM AUTO BED LEVELING.
Tubular chain of various sizes and lengths from 25 to 175 centimeters (10-69 inches). Fidget and fun to handle.
There are 2 sizes (for better quality I recommend the medium size); to decide your preferred size, you can first print the "Test" print profile which contains an example with only 5 links of both sizes. Even just the test is usable as a fidget, as the links are designed to compress and stretch.
Print profiles for Small and Medium sizes are then available, with bed occupancy for both A1 and A1 mini, each plate containing a different chain length.
Print profiles are available for 0.2 and 0.12 layer height for better quality.
(I also tried printing the large version, double the size of the Small, but in many cases, I had bed adhesion issues, which is why I haven't uploaded it for now. If you want, you can print it by scaling the models, but at your own risk)
Important: the chains are all printed in one piece, so it is important to have optimal bed adhesion. (It is not advisable to add a brim because it would be too inconvenient to remove it from each link) I recommend cleaning the bed thoroughly with detergent before printing and performing auto bed leveling. I achieved optimal prints using the smooth PEI plate.
However, if some links detach and are poorly printed, it is still possible to use the rest of the chain by attaching the working links: just make a central cut on the link's ring and press it against the other link's ring until they interlock, at which point you can just leave it as is or apply some glue to reseal the ring.
