HE3D K280 (and any delta) printer frame stiffeners / support
Description
##Instructions have been updated to be more clear ##Part selection has been simplified to reduce confusion Follow my project here: https://crunchysann.com/BL/projects/ These braces are designed to be mounted on the [HE3D K280 delta printer](https://www.amazon.com/HE3D-Printer-Printing-280X600mm-Heating/dp/B076FT5RQK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=k280&qid=1556194069&s=gateway&sr=8-1&&linkCode=sl1&tag=crunchysann-20&linkId=5caee1fcee30eeb1e4a9860b94680b74&language=en_US) to make the frame more rigid. This should also fit other delta printers with 20/20 towers and about 340mm tower-to-tower horizontal spacing. ###Instructions those in USA who can only buy 1/2in-13 threaded rods: 1) Buy: QTY 6: 1/2in-13, 36in long threaded rods from [here on amazon 3 per pack](https://www.amazon.com/HE3D-Printer-Printing-280X600mm-Heating/dp/B076FT5RQK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=k280&qid=1556194069&s=gateway&sr=8-1&&linkCode=sl1&tag=crunchysann-20&linkId=5caee1fcee30eeb1e4a9860b94680b74&language=en_US) or [1 per packs](https://www.amazon.com/HE3D-Printer-Printing-280X600mm-Heating/dp/B076FT5RQK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=k280&qid=1556194069&s=gateway&sr=8-1&&linkCode=sl1&tag=crunchysann-20&linkId=5caee1fcee30eeb1e4a9860b94680b74&language=en_US) your local hardware store 2) Print: QTY 6 of "frame support v6_half inch_out.STL" QTY 6 of "frame support v6_half inch_in.STL" QTY 3 of "Crossmember coupling.STL" no support or raft needed 0.3mm layer height. 3) Mount as shown in images ###Instructions for those outside the USA who can only buy M12-1.75 threaded rods: 1) Buy: QTY 6: M12-1.75, 915mm long threaded rods from your local hardware store 2) Print: QTY 6 of "frame support v6_M12-1.75_out.STL" QTY 6 of "frame support v6_M12-1.75_in.STL" QTY 3 of "Crossmember coupling_M12-1.75.STL" no support or raft needed 0.3mm layer height. 3) Mount as shown in images NOTES: - Get longer rods if you have a larger delta printer that needs supports - Images above do not show the brace mounted on the front of the printer (you will need to mount a brace in the front too. Mounting 2 braces makes the frame ridgid in 2 directions. Mounting 3 braces makes the frame ridiculously ridgid. I don't print very wide parts, only tall ones. So the openings in the frame are enough to get parts out of the printer.
