let me know how it goes. I used organic supports.

After many attempts, I was able to get one of two D-sized clamshells printed. I'm having issues with the print sticking to the bed, which is common for tall, skinny parts. This is a ME thing. I'm taking my plate upstairs to scrub it and then I'll give it another go. The part that finished turned out great.

Way cool - thanks Chuck! I will print some this weekend and will report back.

Using normal supports I got the short and long clamshells to print! Into the toolbox.

The nice thing about these is I can print out a bunch and they cost pennies on the dollar, then at a launch, hand them out and make friends. Normally I have to pay people to be my friend, but it lasts longer when you have stuff they actually need
