I was shooting a video for a new tool when this happened.
It happened because I lifted the router too high several times.
So I decided to take this test again to confirm the problem.
I took almost the same model printed in March 2022 to test this.
This problem might have been caused not only because of the direct impact
but also because of the geometry problems.
Although Item N:17 was designed as a solid model,
Slicers would still divide it into two pieces at the bottom connection part.
and print it with bottom and top layers instead of walls and infill.
I did not notice this problem until I received an email addressing this issue two weeks ago.
I did fix the geometries and update the files on 22.11.10, but I did not notify anyone because I thought this was still a strong enough connection.
I did test it by hand and did not see any problems with the connection.
Until this happened on November 11, 2022, while shooting a new video
But as you can see, I did break other parts of the router but still couldn’t break the same spot.
Not sure why; maybe it’s because I printed it at a higher speed than required because I was fixing a problem at the time I was shooting a video and was in a rush.
Please reprint item number 17 again from updated files for a stronger connection.
But I still think the main problem is not in the print but in the design itself.
I will design a new version in the next 3 weeks to fix this problem.
I am very sorry for my incompetence.
