Transport lock for kit users

Hi,

i would really like to have these for my kit printer, too:

Can you provide files for printing?

Thank you,
David

These are the same "shipping helpers" pictured on page 10 in the "3d Printing Handbook":
http://www.prusa3d.com/downloads/manual/prusa3d_manual_mk2s_en.pdf

Apparently you get these if you buy the assembled printer.

Not the first request I've seen for these:
( http://shop.prusa3d.com/forum/prusa-i3-kit-building-calibrating-first-print-main-f6/shipping-helpers-t3565.html ) - no responses here.

I'd like to have the files to print these as well.

Prusa?

I would add a vote for this - I have already been asked to do a demo at my local model engineering club, and am worried about transport...who knows, Prusa may even get more sales...

Would it really be a problem to supply the STL for these??

Re: Transport lock for kit users

Hey,

I wanted them too and if fact I have been using them. I asked via tech support some time ago and they sent me the files...

These are a complete set. They also told me that they weren't very successful and I guess shipping long distance they aren't. Moving my printer around locally they have worked just fine.

I'm not a Google Guru so if the link doesn't work let me know.
