My library will print files for free, up to a certain amount per month. A lot of libraries are doing this now; you could check yours. The options they gave me for the materials are either PLA or resin. I picked PLA because it had more color options than the resin, which just comes in black and gray. Otherwise, I don't know what the pros and cons are.That is very, very neat!
If I find a place locally to print these out for me, what should I look for? Types of printer, types of material? What are the costs approximately?
I would have never thought to look there. Fingers crossed.My library will print files for free
Very interesting. I wonder if the three baseplates in the picture are set at different levels of efficiency. I'll assume yes, since wasn't able to find additional info. Thanks for the link. Now I want one for my collection.What's wild to me is that apparently they issued a French Tech in the 1940s that was metal with plastic baseplates (http://www.mr-razor.com/Rasierer/Tech/1940s French Tech Set No8.jpg)? I didn't realize this until this evening when I was looking for another type of Tech. So 3D printed plastic baseplates isn't too far off from what was done in the past in some ways.
@abies's link didn't work for me. HERE's my link.Very interesting. I wonder if the three baseplates in the picture are set at different levels of efficiency. I'll assume yes, since wasn't able to find additional info. Thanks for the link. Now I want one for my collection.
Fatips have pins, so you'd need a guard that has the three pin holes. The guards listed here were modified for razors with pins; I don't know how well they do in Fatips.Fantastic idea from @SlimGem as always. (When are you going to make a Shake Sharp razor type ? )
I don't have a Fat Handle Gillete Tech. But I have a Fatip Grande/Gentile.
Has anyone tried these baseplates in Fatip Grande/Picolo razor? I think a 3 baseplate system would be a great upgrade for this affordable razor.
That looks awesome! Please post the link so members here can download the files. Thanks for sharing.Hello, very interesting models.
I made something like this for the “Gillette King” years ago.
Last year I designed and printed my own razor. This is what he looks like.
Kind regards from Austria.
