Hi everyone!

As promised I managed to finish the overworked prototype of the 3D printed watch baskets before christmas!

Here are some pictures so you can see the current build:

Nice work.  What filament did you use?  PLA?

Recently I had to deal with an accident where the aluminum spinner of a L&R Watchmaster cleaner was shattered.  After scratching my head, I came up with a 3D printed piece that retrofit to the undamaged spinner shaft.  Here I show the piece I printed and the finished product.

I was, at first, concerned about the interaction of the L&R solutions and the PLA material.  I did several tests and concluded that there was no chemical reaction with the PLA--happy about that.
