New Lower Steering Column Bearing Kit (in development)

It is FDM. I wish I could do resin for detail, but those materials can't compete with this. The machine use to be an Ender 5 Plus, but there is not much of the original unit now. Aftermarket motherboard, extruder/hotend assembly, z axis ball screws, enclosure, slide bearings, and a lot more. The frame is also heavily triangulated everywhere for rigidity, in order to reach this kind of dimensional accuracy. The filament is a high end PA6-GF, that is really strong and can withstand heat. It needs to print around 300c, in an enclosure. I created my own print profiles with dozens of hours of testing, to assure as close to a solid structure as possible. When I cut a print in half, It looks like an injection mold on the inside, with absolutely no voids.
Interesting, must be the fibers that give it that rough finish. I have a MicroCenter house branded (PowerSpec) FlashForge clone I've had for years now that is kind of turning into a similar thing. So far it's just a stepper driver update to quiet them down and moving to a different control system (Klipper/Moonraker setup) so I could get native wi-fi access instead of constantly moving files back and forth with an SD card. I've been thinking about trying some of the more "engineering" materials and building and enclosure for it, but the somewhat ancient hotend I have on it is my main limiter on printing. It'll go hot enough I think, but the flowrate isn't great and I'm impatient, lol.
