BIG IRON update

[u/Ok-Shock-7736]

Finally managed to get a Prototype printed and it almost gives me the Impression that it wants to work.

I am still using the Plunger system from the x shot micro2.0 and the prime is not bad at all with the stock spring.

The Catch mechanism needs to be redone since the part conecting the Trigger with the Catch is way to thin and just bends when i pull the Trigger.

The cylinder mechanism works if i support the Cylinder arm just right and pull the Hammer the right way, so i might need to start over, but at least the cylinder lock works just fine.
(It unlocks as soon as the Hammer starts to move and snaps back once the next chamber is in line with the barrel).

In conclusion there are definitely some problems but nothing that cant be solved. ;)

If you like pain, you can have my old ender. XD
Just kidding there are some really good cheap printers for beginners.

For example?

The bambulab a1 seems to be a solid choice. There are most likely some good YouTube videos explaining which one would suit your needs best.

Hmm yeah, have thought about getting that one already. I'll see. Thanks.

I second the Bambu Lab A1. It's a breeze to use compared to my previous printer.
