Rohde & Schwarz SMIQ/FSEA/ZVR (and more) compatible feet with kickstand
Description
Feet compatible with a large variety of Rohde & Schwarz instruments of similar vintage including SMIQ, SME, SMT, FSEA, FSEB, FSIQ, ZVR, and ZVRE instruments, and likely many more. I've been told by people installing these feet that they also fit R&S models SGPF, UAF, DVG, DVMD, EFA, and SFM. The set of models includes a front foot, a front foot kickstand, a rear foot, and the pins used to hold the feet to the chassis. The second picture is the printed parts on the left and the original parts on the right. Because of the layer orientation of the printed pins and their slightly tighter fit than the originals, I'd recommend removing the pins only by pushing them from the interior side (so you have to remove the chassis panel). Freshly printed feet and pins can be installed without opening the chassis. 10/1/2019 Update 1.1: The model for the front foot has been slightly modified: the bump on the tab that presses against the kickstand when rotating has been shrunk slightly, so that if there is any layer adhesion issue or if you print in a harder material, it is less likely to break. Existing front foot parts can be lightly sanded on that bump (center of the model, facing outward) to the same effect. 1/16/2019 Update 1.2: Updated the models for the front foot, rear foot, and pin for easier printing/fewer failures due to bed adhesion problems. The front and rear foot not have small removable bridges between the end pins (these should be cut before installation) to make sure if one comes a little loose, they still stay put while printing. Similarly, I changed the pin head to have more surface area to contact the bed, then I included a single model with four pins stuck together with similar bridge material which should be cut away before use. In my prints, these changes fix most of the first layer issues I've come across.
