First peek at a 3D printed CB ND3 bracket

It's a work in progress, but it's at a point that it is functional enough to share with you. I still have to round out the edges and optimize for strength and filament usage. But it works, and a perfect fit. The cup holder insert clicks into place.

The CB is the Uniden Pro510XL, but can easily scale for other models.

ND Tool Kits?

Hi all,

A bit ago I posted a picture of the hidden storage behind the passenger seat, and asked what you keep in it.

A few said a tool kit. I think this is a fantastic idea. I'm looking to expand on this comment! I'm new to the ND community, so looking for your experienced answers. I did search the sub, but couldn't find an answer.

What are the required, recommended, and optional tools to keep in the car?

Thanks!

First print with the Super Tack (PETG)

Did not outperform the included textured plate. Was expecting these lifted corners to stay put.

First look at the ND3 glove compartment tray

Hi all.

/u/Cannoli72 posted last week about a tray for the glove compartment. Post here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MiataND/s/O9wmSnd8eI

Here is my first full prototype!

Still a bit of work to be done before sharing on makerworld, but looking good! It's a hair too long for one, so a bit of pressure to get the door closed.

Sorry for the janky video!

EDIT: It's live on Makerworld!

Hespeler Road closure June 19-22

Be prepared for a nightmare of traffic if you live in this area. Red lines are road closures this weekend, and green are your only exits/entrances.

Line angle based on parameter calculation

EDIT: Solved. Answer at the bottom.

I'm trying to parameterize a diagram, and I want to calculate an angle based on a diameter.

​

In degrees the calculation for the angle is simply (where "radius" is a parameter):

​

θ = (228.2)/(radius)

​

When I try to enter that in directly to the line, even as a new parameter, I get the little red line underneath.

​

Google isn't being helpful. What am I doing wrong?

​

​

EDIT: the solution was to add the units in the equation like:

θ = (228.2 mm)/(radius)

2026 Championship Memorial Cup watch parties

WATCH PARTIES

As the Rangers prepare for late-night puck drops in Kelowna, fans are also encouraged to gather throughout the tournament at local restaurants and community watch parties to cheer on the Blueshirts. Rangers partners will be hosting Official Watch Party locations once again, creating an electric atmosphere throughout #RTown. Fans can enjoy the games with full audio and prizing at Four Fathers Brewing, Moose Winooskis, Jack Astor’s Kitchener and Boston Pizza Bingemans!

Along with our usual watch party locations, the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium will be open with free admission to the game. Non-perishable donations are welcomed and will be donated to the Waterloo Region Food Bank.

3D printed a decoration for my car.

I'll have a few extra at the Four Fathers Memorial Cup Championship game watch party on Sunday.

(I'm not affiliated with the team or Four Fathers)

Have been modelling a Memorial Cup logo for the past few hours, it's printing now!

Replacement crank shaft/handle/arm for pool cover.

Hope this is "functional" enough for this sub!

Modelled and printed this and saved a few hundred on a new pool cover holder. Also saved the old one from the landfill!

Made a few design improvements in strength, handle grip, and the handle "print in place" will spin with very little play. Printed in translucent PETG.

The interior of the shaft ("test print" shown, unfortunately missed taking pictures of the full build) has additional structure to allow the screws to grip but printed in a way that it won't split apart the layers. Pilot holes drilled. This white part is printed in PLA, and three of them are in the shaft.

Also a replacement pool basket in PETG!

LET'S go RANGERS ✅✅✅⬜

Listened to the first two periods while taking my mom out for a nice day (check out Neustadt Brewery! Do the Cavern tour!).

Then had to fight the Mrs (Habs cultist) over the TV for the 3rd and OTs.

What a win!

Rangers watch party at Four Fathers in Cambridge on Tuesday!
