MrEUCMan Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) I have never been happy with my V11 kick stand. It falls over too easily. I have searched many stands out there and most of them are too short because of V11's suspension. I finally found one that works perfectly: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5480831 Just thought I share. The V11 fits securely on it and doesn't fall over anymore! I love it! I printed it using PTEG. Edited September 22, 2022 by MrEUCMan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhpr262 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) Dear god this looks awful. Apparently nobody has ever told that guy that he needs to set an upper limit to the angle of one corner of each triangle during the tesselation process, when the CAD program converts the body into the actual .stl file. I use an upper limit of 0.1° and with that setting you basically cant see any "creases" in curves where there shouldnt be any, at least not in the actual print.

Great, now can you please redesign and upload your improved version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just need to know how tall the vertical props are (not counting the height of the baseplate), how deep and how wide the top of the props are so the hangers can fully rest on them, how far apart the inside edges of the props are and how large you want your baseplate to be. But in all honesty: I think my own version of this would consist of free scrap wood I have in my garage and free scrap bolts and screws I have been collecting in various bins for 25 years, not fifteen bucks worth of printer filament and twelve hours of printing time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0000 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 There's probably a good population of apartment-dwelling EUC riders making that more difficult to accomplish, but yeah scrap wood stands shouldn't be discounted. Although I was kinda dumb and still printed imperfect pedal-hangar angled supports rather than rummage for the miter saw. Not the most stable thing in the world, but it does the job. Doesn't need to be anything fancy, although nothing against show pieces either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that it's not the best designed, but almost all the other stands out there are either too narrow or too short. So it's either this or wooden blocks. I prefer this.
