[P] Hotend Holder

Full-colour FFF? Multi-materials with unparalleled interlayer bond strength? Abrasives without abrasion?

So first the parts got cut out of the waterjet:

I then filled off the edges (with a large file) and deburred (with a small one), which takes a multiple more time than it takes the waterjet to cut the parts in the first place:

I'm filing the inner corners of Holder Front here so that they mesh better with Holder Bottom.

When all together, I could test and deduce that the Holder Side plates were useless and didn't bear any load whatsoever.

Thus, I've removed the side plates from the CAD assembly:

I liked the look of the curve in the middle of Holder Bottom but it's probably unnecessary now that there isn't 4 square holes weakening the part, so they have been removed.

Render with the tweaked hotend holder design.
