SP 15 Smaller Moonphase Clock

This clock is fantastic I love it. Had a few teething issues with slipping clutches but resolved those problems. It has great amplititude and lasts a full 7.4 days on one wind. After lots of tweeking it has become very accurate which I am pleased about as I have a collection of antique mechqanical clocks which are very accurate and this clock holds it own.

SP 16 FRAME-AGAIN

Forget foregoing-- I uninstalled and reinstalled Cura and now it fits. My apologies, tho I have no idea why.

That's strange, but good news. I knew it was supposed to fit. The settings must have been different in the old version.


I started with PrusaSlicer, then added SnapMaker Orca. They are similar enough that I can usually find what I need. I get completely lost trying to find my way around in Cura, even though Google says it is supposed to slightly easier to use. Every slicer seems to have a million knobs to turn.


Hang in there, it gets easier after a while. The assembly guide will list the recommended print parameters. The important settings are the number of wall loops (or perimeters). Most parts probably want 4 walls, but a few parts might be listed to use 5. And if the manual says to use the Classic slicer for the gears, they will print significantly better with Classic.

The frame fits on a 220x220 bed with a rotation of -5 degrees. The skirt and brim will need to be turned off.


If you really feel like you need to split the frame, most slicers have the feature built-in.

All of my clocks are designed to fit the Ender 3 (220x220) and Prusa MK3 (250x210) sized printers. The default orientation fits on a Prusa. Rotate the frame parts -5 degrees on the Z axis and they should fit on an Ender 3. You may need to turn off the skirt and brim.


Check if you can make the parts fit. Etsy allows until Saturday for me to either ship or cancel the parts kit. I will wait until I hear how you want to proceed before doing anything. MyMiniFactory customer support has to handle refunds on their sales. I do not know how they deal with digital downloads after they have already been downloaded.
