The 3D Printer

  • By Wright Motorcycles

With the small amount of free time on Saturday night I thought what could go wrong, learn a CAD program (FreeCad), learn a Printer program (Flashprint) and fire up the new FlashForge Creator printer.

Success!! The white ones at the bottom of the page are the result. Need to order some black PLA or ABS.


I went to try and replicate a Rear Blinker Offset block used on the Beta bikes when you want to mount the blinkers on the rear guard extender.


The basic shape was easy enough but the holes and the diagonal slice was a bit more of head scratching.
