Mechanical

Multiple iterations of modeling and printing were required before correct positioning of the mounting pins and cutouts was determined. This process was made more difficult by variations in tolerance, material strength, infill percentage, and support material, between various 3D printers. Initial prints were made using the Stratasys Continuous Build (shown below) in IDeATe, but the resulting part was fairly brittle, and structurally weak. In particular, the circular mounting pins were damage-prone while removing support material.
