Printed Parts

I print small fixes for the van on my Bambu P1S. These three were designed in build123d, which is CAD written in Python, so every size in them is a named number I can change.

Electrical cabinet cover

The switch panel on the electrical cabinet was a grey plate held on with screws. This cover clips over the cabinet’s 3/4 in face frame and pulls straight off, no tools. The switches sit on small tiles that slide into a dovetail channel at a 32 mm pitch, which puts each one where its old hole was, so the wiring reaches as it is. A new switch means reprinting one 6 g tile.

I measured the opening from a photo with a tape measure in frame, scaled to about ±3 mm. The cover and five tiles print together in PETG: 103 g, about 3 hours. The end tile needs supports; the first one printed without them and had to be redone.

Screen hood with a folding cover

The dash has a floating 10 in Android screen. My dog’s nose kept ending up on it, and the sun washes it out. The hood slides down over the 12 mm thick unit and shades it from the top and sides. The cover is four panels joined by double-pivot hinges, printed in one piece: it hangs over the screen, and folds up flat onto the visor when I need the screen.

A fit-test plate came first, with a width gauge, the channel corner and one hinge. It fit, and the hinge freed up after one firm twist. The hood is 83 g of PETG and the cover 107 g.

Fruit bowl

A macramé net under the overhead cabinet held the fruit before. This is a TPU 95A mesh bowl, 295 mm across and 110 mm deep, printed as four identical quarters (45 g and about 4 hours each). Fins along the seams zip-tie together, and it hangs from four tabs on the rim. The size is a guess at the space under the cabinet, so it may change.

The van hub’s box is on the hub page, and the MaxxFan’s motor cage and controller box are on its own page.
