Parametric Fenders for the LR3 now on Printables!

I now have a test print of the 45° version - I can’t test install them because my covers are slightly different and at the moment I don’t have time to reprint.

I can say that even with only two perimeters they are noticeably better. I have only printed one - with a snap off fin and it worked perfectly with no other support. PrusaSlicer did throw up a warning that I needed more footprint so I’ll extend the fin for the share version. It snapped off perfectly cleanly with no effort with only three 0.2mm thick x 1mm wide tabs.

They are REALLY stiff so might need some effort to get them off, or maybe they are well suited to PETG, but I can deflect them by the thickness of the “clip overhang” and they show no sign of snapping.

I will try to get some time tomorrow to upload them as a new standard. In the meantime if anyone is interested, a test stl is attached to this post.
