3D Printer Research

After weeks of research and looking at Creality, Anycubic and Prusa and many others. I purchased a Prusa Mini+

It just works. It's a lot like printing a PDF on an Ink Printer, send a file and it looks like it should. The Prusa Mini+ 3D Printer is similar, send the file and wait a bit longer (minutes to an hour) and it looks like it should. I know a smart engineer who has a non Prusa and he has a high level of fustration with it. I know a Prusa owner that thew out their China 3D printer. Prusa works perfectly every time. I am happy with my decision.

Low profile cost effective vacuum hose adapter. Many workshop tools have a 2.25 inch vacuum hose adapter and most vacuum have 1.25 inch hoses. This has a large 2.25 outside diameter that will fit into a 2.25 inch hole as on the Wen Sander. The inside small hole is for a 1.25 inch hose on the shop vacuum cleaner. this was modeled in MS 3D Builder. Printed on a Prusa Mini+ with PETG filament from California filament. I kept the Z height low profile, You can scale Z higher if needed depending on you applications.
