This is a 3D print of an ellipse circle, its the first thing I made for my 3d printer (ultimaker 2 ext). It was designed with sketchup.
I printed the parts with PLA, sliced with Cura.
Hope you like it. Trammel – ellipse circle 1) Print all parts. (Print the small parts two at once.)
2) Remove some burr with a knife or a fine sandpaper.
3) Put the splint with the knob together, you can hear a “klick”.
4) Give them into the runner and use a little bit of silicon spray. Test if they slide well.
5) Fix the hexagon female screws (M3) in the knobs with a drop of superglue.
6) Screw the screws (length 12mm, diameter 3mm) in the gears and in the pencil – holder.
7) Put four little wood screws in the holes of the runner. They are used as pins.
8) Assemble the pencil – holder and use a piece of pencil and fix it with the screw.
9) Test the circle and enjoy!
