3D printing an old part

[Steve Hoch]

I know there isn't going to be a huge demand for this stuff, but I will be using it on my own grills moving forward.

Man you got all the goodies going on over there!! I think there could possibly be a demand for them. Not everybody has the space or wants to buy several parts grills to make one really nice one.

There will be a slight demand when those pieces fail on people's grills and they don't want to buy a parts grill for one little part that you can't get anymore otherwise.

Absolutely 100% true

Or that part is broken on the grill they thought they got for that part. Looking good Steve!

Ok, this is the final design for the old style 6 pin whitewalls.

Excellent Steve!

Excellent Steve!

I just need to print some more of them now, they take an hour apiece. Let me know how many you want so I can get those out to you.

They look great to me

Maybe 4 of the wide whites and 4 of the regular whites. Or whatever you want to send. I can always buy more later.

 

[LMichaels]

You guys with those printers amaze me. Hell it's not like you can place it in a scanner and make a copy

Ok, some of both. I'll see what I can stuff in the box along with your wheel.

Looking forward to it! Thanks Steve!

I actually think these are better than the original ones. They are whiter than the original ones which I find pleasing to the eye. They are also thicker so they fit more flush in the wheel. Also I was able to remove the 3D printed one from the wheel without damage which was a bonus. I still don't recommend doing that and can't see a real reason to do so. Don't put the whitewalls on until you have the wheel totally clean and/or painted just to be safe. They also fit very snugly so they shouldn't ever come loose or pop off.
