Housing for RAMBo
I like my Prusa i3 very much. Print quality is very good. I have little problems so very satisfied.
Except for the housing of the RAMBo. It's too flimsy so I drew another.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
looks nice. 🙂 Pretty nice design.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Indeed, looks excellent. I'll try printing it out soon. RIght now my RAMBo is just sitting on the desk because I couldn't squeeze the thick wires into the flimsy provided case. This was going to be one of my first projects once I figured out how to actually use the printer. This has saved me heaps of time. Thank you!
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Nice job Wilfred.n! I'll definitely add it to my 'To Print' list. Thanks for sharing!
Re: Housing for RAMBo
I just printed this out the other day! looks excellent, Will be installing it soon. (though out of place since i didn't have orange filament to match the rest of the parts 😛 )
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Hi
That is nice, but unfortunately, there is one problem I can see; there is no cable tie to hold the heater cables and stop them flexing.
It's important to stop the flexing before the cables reach the socket, otherwise the constant movement can cause the connector to work loose.
Thanks

Re: Housing for RAMBo
I dont think there is need for cable tie, look closely at "Prusa_i3_RAMBo_V3_left_plate.STL", cables are quite well secured there.

Re: Housing for RAMBo
I already printed it (101% scale), but not tested yet. I was going to modify original housing (stronger walls), but this seems better.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
This is super sweet 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Awesome. Thank you!
Must now order some bright orange filament just for this print.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Thank you for sharing this, I also struggled with the original enclosure, Will be printing this soon to see how it works.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
Great design. I'm glad I have got some orange filament left over 🙂

Life is keeping interested and excited by knowledge and new things.
Re: Housing for RAMBo
nice design, thank you for the effort and sharing.
if you have the time maybe add a version for the chain cable upgrade, that combination will be really nice 🙂
(note to self : must learn 3d modeling)

It's not that hard to import these models into TinkerCAD in combination with one of the cable chain links. That's how I did it. There are plenty of tutorials and Youtube videos (Chuck Hellebuyck is my inspiration).
and an 8 inch (200mm) or greater caliper is recommended.
