Bed scraper

I know there are thousands of bed scraper designs.  Seems like anyone with a 3d paint program tried their hand at it.  Well the classic line "I couldn't find one I liked, so I designed my own" applies.

I could beef it up to be an ice scraper if someone wanted, but I live where it never snows so I have no experience in the field and I'd have to find a way of testing it.  I have a minor distain for unprinted, untested, and unproven models.  If I release a model, I tested it first. 

I don't think it's a Hall of Fame design, but it's the best scraper out there.  So please download the scraper if you like it, and give me some constructive feedback if you don't like it.

RE: Bed scraper

Not to be a snot here, but I've also noticed that since that craze caught on, the Prints section seems to have far more trivial prints and fewer really unique and useful ones.

PS: A moderator told me that as long as a user thinks a print is awesome(even a calibration cube), it qualifies for posting in Awesome prints(hall of shame). Should we brace for a tsunami of benchys? This is why I avoid this category. Only here now because I saw your name.

I wasn't accusing anyone of breaking the rules, it was more a accusation of poor moral conduct cast in the OP's general direction, since this is clearly a bid to view and download the scraper for Prusa Meters. It's practically Spam.

 

I'm sure we are going to be seeing a lot of this in the coming weeks, it would be great if these people would form a group and just download each others prints all the time and like each other, so it wouldn't interfere with the community as a whole. I also have noticed the degradation of quality models, might as well be Thingiverse.

 

This is my opinion, but I hope I'm not the only one seeing it that way.

No rule was broken since since the OP thought it should be posted here. But it is obvious he is trying to get people to download, print and post makes to garner "something". Spam, yeah. Conduct, <>! The OP is one of the most vocal proponents of the "rewards" that I noticed in the reward topic...

Groups. It won't take long for people to come up with a way to exploit them for badges and Pmeters. At least 2 exploit designs have already been formulated, but not implemented.

I think a lot of people think similar thoughts, it is just that they won't say anything. People should be more vocal.🙂 🙃 😉 🙃 😉 🙃 😉

Yes it's a bid to get people to download the model.  Isn't that the reason people post their designs?  I'm not making any money off it, and it's a link back to PrusaPrinters.org, so hardly spam.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and you can't please everyone.  You might not think it's worthy of the Hall of Fame, and you're probably right ... but that's your opinion.

"Poor moral conduct"  hmmm

With all the really poor moral conduct in the world, my print bed scraper is what you're going to target?  I disagree.  I can agree it's not the most complicated design in the world, but I doubt you could replicate it.  I could even agree it's not the sexiest looking scraper, if you could show me one sexier. 

I think the poor moral conduct is shown by cad-noob Karens crying about how hard it is to find a decent free 3d model now days.

Ignore the morality police. Their gatekeeping isn't any more important here than anywhere else in life. One man's frivolous print is another's diagnostic or learning tool.

RE: Bed scraper

I am not sure what the big fuss here is about. I actually liked the design and it does seem more effective than many out there. Would it be impossible to replicate? Sure not but that's not the point here is it?

No, it's certainly not impossible to replicate.  I was accused of posting a simple design and we were debating it's place in the Hall of Fame.  As far as scrapers go, it's a nice design, works well, and I wanted some downloads at the time so I shared it.  The Can't-design-a-cup-Karen crowd was offended 🙁
