PICA | Brush

Here is a 100% print-in-place brush to use around the house. I use mine to catch rebellious purges from my 3D printers.

It prints in about 40min with a 0.4mm nozzle.

DIMENSIONS | L200mm x W40mm x H20mm It can print on a Bambu Lab A1 mini print bed (180x180mm) if you put it in diagonal

3D PRINT SETTINGS: The brush is meant to be printed with a 0.4mm nozzle. You'll need a few particular settings as follow:

• Wall loops: 2 • Layer height: 0.3mm/layer (ignore the warning in some slicers)

The lines of the weave pattern have a width of 2mm. So you can print in 40min with 2 wall lines of 1mm each, or in a bit more than 1h with a regular 0.5mm wall line width.

For a faster print (about 40min): • Line width (inner & outer wall): 1mm • Initial layer line width: default 0.5mm or so • Wall generator: Arachne (so your slicer can "detect" the bristles of the brush)

If you don't have "arachne mode" in your slicer, just go with regular settings, regular line width of about 0.5mm. The 2mm weave pattern will need 4 lines for each layer, so it will take about 1h10min to print.

Happy printing!
