Lock Nester Certification - Best Practices

[carter2422]

I had this problem as well, although it was not due to sanding. My problem is that the head piece was much too loose, causing it to fall off unless the whole piece or orientated upwards.

There is one more trick you could use, but be carefull as it can potentialy ruin your print.

Try holding the lips of the head piece under hot watter and gently squezze them together so the get a fraction of a milimeter tighter. This gave the final result for me.

Again, be carefull

Hi all.

here is my result of Lock Nesters Monica.

Printed in faberdashery “cherryblossom pink” and ColorFabb “fluorescent pink”

btw: After earning the badge, how do we get the other Lock Nester Models for test prints?

[fleethower]

The certification model is just Monica, she is the toughest print to make. Once certified you will receive the final models around October 20 or 21, but test prints for those models should not be necessary unless you would like to conduct them on your own.

Best,

Fleet

I woudl like to give it a try with this certification, how can I find the files?

Thanks!

[Joerg_4]

Hi Fleet,

thanks for your reply. Sure test prints may not be necessary, but I like it to practice (print and post processing) to be prepared when an official order is placed.

Besides that, collecting all and take a photo of the entire “family” would be fun too

Cheers,
Joerg

Hi Joerg, sounds good, we’re working on the models furiously to get them all finalized, if it’s possible to distribute we will absolutely do so.

Thanks for you interest and help with this project!

Hi,

Quite a few people asked about the certification .stl files. So how/where can they be downloaded?

Thanks,

Stefan

Thats great idea!

I would also like to get certified for Lock Nester.

How can i get in the certification process and get the .stl file for Monica?

Hello everyone, @fleethower,

I have printed six Monicas and gave them to my kids to play with for “market research” (ages 9 and 11). The tail keeps breaking off so I would like to propose making the tail removable. It could also have a long and wide base inserted in a hole. Also, the coli should be thicker diameter. So, is it possible to get the CAD file to make the modifcation? In addition, maybe the tail could be customized to different shapes or be the kids name in script font.

Thank you,

Ara

[fleethower]

Hi Ara, thanks for your interest and testing! We have been furiously trying to finish all the models and have just done so. The tail modification is a great idea, will look into that asap and see if new files can be distributed to the hubs.

Thanks!
