is the file for the cannons ready for distro? my friend is looking for things to print, and I'd like to try them out
While I am still distracted working on the new printer build, and expect it to take till late december to complete, it is time to release the 1U sidemounts into the wild. Keep in mind the requirements... SOLENOID USE REQUIRED. 1/4" OD LINE REQUIRED. Modicum of competency when printing REQUIRED. Pipe tape or EEEEEEE600000 required at piston plug to seal it completely. You have to know how to get the best overhangs you can out of it, as there are a few spots that are unvaoidable. Generally prints well enough for me, your results may vary. I make extra of the threaded bits and use the first one to clean out the threads for the second one. This is the first released generation and I plan to update it after I get feedback from others. Will be posted in resources as soon as upload completes
Printed a test cannon. Had issues with smaller ID pistons(.17" diamter) where the BC style spring would get jammed in between the side of the breech and the piston so turned some larger pistons (~.18" diameter) that filled up most of the breech and had no more spring issues. Otherwise, this thing shoots hard even using a copper barrel!
