Description

This should fit a 606 skate bearing it has a 22mm id and aprox 44mm od and should fit where the standard laser cut idler goes. It is a bit thicker than the laser cut (5mm) which i found works a bit better from having made one on a lathe to replace the original which i was having problems with.

So far i havent tried it in my extruder but I dont see why it wouldnt work :)

im downloading it from my iphone in linux so not sure

The picture rotation thing might be related to a peculiarity of the jpeg format that isn't supported by the web site's image handling software...

I use software called Paint Shop Pro 8 which has a feature called Lossless LPEG Rotation. This works by doing some funky tweaking to the jpeg file, to that when the file is decompressed back into a displayable image, it gets rotated. But I've found that some software does not recognize the tweaks, and returns the images to their original configuration.

Actually, the Printruder doesn't need this at all.

the printruder design doesnt have enough space for the pulley without breaking out the back wall of that peice. so i dont think so. it is designed to just have the bearing against the filiment directly

Excellent! Will it fit the Printruder I wonder? That'd be almost the whole Plastruder minus the motor/pulley/bearing! Of course, the Pulley might be printable, next..
