Several models included with various shapes and sizes of gear teeth. This is a straight forward, simple and easy print for the Echo Dot v2 housing. Minor support recommended on the USB port opening. Just as I did with the LED base the inspiration was to upscale the look of the plain Echo device. I really am into gears and mechanical movements so this I thought would look cool and go with some of the other things I have printed up. Takes a bit of time to print but it’s a simple print, no overhangs or angles greater than 45 degrees. With the exception being the area for the USB input. I would recommend support in this area unless you are sure your printer can bridge that space. With the support it will come out a bit cleaner for an end product and it’s a very small amount needed.
Once complete the Echo Dot will slip into place.
Thank you for checking it out- if you print one of this design or any other ones I have please toss up a picture.
Plenty strong with 2 walls, 3 top, 3 bottom and 15% infill. PLA is fine. I would recommend support on the USB opening but if you can bridge well with the printer you use it should be fine. I typically use .2 or .15 layers on items with sharp edges such as this.
