3d pen

Postby Kerstien » Sun Apr 16, 2017 6:50 am

What do you think of this 3d pen to fix a print that got damaged when removing supports like a prong or chip? https://youtu.be/bJxEqAax55Q

I know a few have used them. You can get one from Loews or Home Depot.

You can buy a UV flashlight from Amazon to do the same thing.

Ah, I see, you wanted to rebuild features that broke off.

Hmm... I wonder if that pen would work with a resin like B9 Emerald? In the video (I only skimmed it) the pen looked like it dispensed a thick resin.

At first i will try to cast with there resin, as all resin can be casted if there isn't a big chunk, if not i will try with b9's ;)

Take a section of the supports that printed. cure it. cut it and use a little resin to glue it to prong broken off. Then use the pen to cure it.

I use that 5second fix pen that you can buy at many stores it has a thick consistency so it won't run all over but stay where you need it and hit with built in uv light for a fry seconds and just sand to blend in.
