Okay, thanks all.

I will get a few more printed up.

Stay tuned...

I have one of these if anyone needs one.....

Pablo,

Have you tried painting the handle with Plastidip? It works well for smoothing out the layers in FDM prints. The soft rubbery grip is an added bonus.

I have not! Sounds like a cool idea...

Plastidip is inappropriate for precisely dimensioned objects such as the glove box door handles I have been making for TJ. It's too thick.

If anyone can actually see the lines (they are extremely difficult to see in this particular part made in black, you have to hold them a certain way in the light), then you could use XTC 3D, which is specifically made for FDM parts, or use the tried and true method of building in ABS and then smoothing using acetone vapor. Another technique is clearcoating with laquer, which is what I did for C-Dan's BJ74 Turbo grill emblems. That was to weatherproof them but it had the side benefit of smoothing out the layer lines.

Precision glove box door?

Are you still making these or is this a done deal?

I think I can get a few more made up. Let me get through the end of month/end of quarter at work and then I should be able to get this going.

Thanks! Standing by.

I am in for one also.

 

[Rzeppa]

I can make however many TJ wants. Since he paid for my 3D design, all sales need to go through TJ. I will mention that I have designed and built many, many 3D printed cruiser parts.

I'll take one if its still available.
