Description
Flexure stabilized Pointer - demonstration of stabilization by selective orientation of bend axis
- remodeled to remove weak points and make it self standing
- Twin color pointer (swap at layer) with correct end stop limiter for fixed point effect
IMPORTANT:
Model is sensitive to chosen material:
- When using PLA ensure its reasonably fresh wasn't stored in humid environment - exposure to humidity causes PLA to become brittle and its not reversible by drying
- Dry PETG is a good option due to strong inter layer adhesion and higher flexibility than PLA
Model inspired by one shown in Jelle Rommers video and recently showcased by The Action Lab
