Baggage Latch Guide Block

[Neal]

I'm printing the ones that someone posted as the design. They look different from what I think I have but we'll see. I'll throw a batch in the coach and compare someday, just like I have the 3D printed house water filter wrenches and sani-con wet bay port cover I give out at times.

Good customer service, I have 1 of those filter wrenches

I’d be happy to 3D print for you @NWIP just let me know. I may download the design and check it out but it seems to look different than what I remember that piece looking like.

It seems pretty basic and you could even make one out of wood.

As to pricing I’m not surprised. Seems like everything priced at Newmar is out of control now.

I have seen pictures of 3 different shapes. They are all similar, but definitely different. Someone (I think on FB) had printed a bunch, and I bought 4-5 of them. This was last summer and I do not remember who it was. They seem to be really good.

Here is a youtube link where the author provides info on material to buy to cut out the glides.

Yup, that's where I saw it! Thanks!

Finished at 4 AM here in the wonka plastic factory.

Nicely done! One advantage of resin 3D printing is it takes the same amount of time to print 20 pieces side by side as it takes to print one. The downside? I just wouldn't trust a resin printed part for this particular application as resin tends to sheer / shatter / chip at stress points. One slam of the door and I think a resin printed part would fail. I think what you've done here with your filament 3d printer would be the most robust, albeit slow to print multiple copies...

Best,

Neal, what filament are you using? We have seven or eight types.

My brainiac that runs the printer is thinking PAHT-CF by Bambu

 

[Neal]

This print was done using ABS

 

[GUS2000]

Neal, I just ordered a Bambu X1C! we will have to collaborate on some stuff!!

 

[Neal]

Nice, I just watched videos on their new H2D I think it's called. I'm still all about Prusa for high quality prints but have a side eye on Bambu labs.

While you're at it, you might want to look at the linear bearings used to hinge the cargo doors... I have 3d printed spacers that replace their often failing linear hinges with a solid 3d printed part. That way, you don't have to worry with o-rings and circlips and parts that shouldn't be used like Newmar did. That's a linear bearing, not a hinge... One sheet will replace most Newmar cargo bay door hinges with solid spacers.

just like I have the 3D printed house water filter wrenches and sani-con wet bay port cover I give out at times.

I love my filter wrench and port covers in orange and red! Thank YOU Neal!

I did a 3d print a few years back...and it splintered in use.

We had some well worn Sam's Club cutting boards. Printed outlines, with drill locations, used spray adhesive to adhere to cutting board. Then used a band saw and drill press to finish the fabrication. Didn't really cost anything...because we weren't using these cutting boards anymore.

I printed with ABS with 100% infill, think it will hold up fine. Sent them off to the @NWIP lab for testing.
