What have you 3D printed for your TJ?

Printing out some components to annoy people at the beach ...

I was trying to do that on a smaller scale, but I waited too long before buying. Had the cart loaded for over a week now, just didn't get around to actually placing the order. I just started using the ASA-CF and quite like it, saving over $7 per roll seemed like a pretty good deal.

I apparently bought some CF stuff prior and forgot I had it. Haven't tried it yet.

Nothing is more annoying than wanting to print something and not having material you need.
 
Speaking of bad influences, I’d like some more guidance from the experts. Given I’m just getting into this, can anyone recommend a good set of filaments to start out with on the Bambu HD2?

I’m sure at some point I’ll get into objects which require more durable material, but certainly at first I’ll just be playing around with the thing. I’ll see all the grandkids over the Christmas holiday, and know LJ would love to see something printed for him.

Thoughts on materials and colors?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to print random trinkets, toys etc to get the feel for it just use PLA.

Something a little better PETG-HF

Something for the jeep ASA or better.

Don't buy yellow, nobody likes yellow. ;)

I print a lot of black.
 
Well, since this has turned into a non-jeep related 3D printing thread, I guess I'll chime in.
I'm definitely a cheap mofo, so for Christmas everyone is getting 3D printed foldable phone stands. I know, a lot of people already have Popsockets or kickstands on their phone. Well, they can just re-gift these to someone in need. These phone stands are like fruitcakes in that they are the gift that keeps on getting re-given but without the nasty unidentifiable green things inside.

Looking good! I've been batch printing more damn dogs for family and friends. But I guess you're right, is there an off-topic "what random 3D shit are you printing" thread we should be dumping all this into, instead? lol

Here's the thread for design files

https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/share-your-3d-design-files-or-sell-a-diy-part.63465/

This thread is really a 3D printing catch all thread as we have Jeep specific, printer specific and random printing info being shared.

I follow that one, as well, and have made some meager contributions. lol

As long as nobody is offended by us going off-topic occasionally here ... but to stay on brand, I can always glue my PLA dog to my dashboard.

I think it's better to have an active thread than a dead one which is what I believe we'd see if it's only TJ specific.
