3D Printing a mod

[Daniel]

With all the advances in the industry I'm puzzled why some company hasn't printed a mod yet. I know of one company that printed a BF 26650 called the Mushroom mod....

Ok yes given will be a challenge to fully print a regulated mod but with the advances in printing I think it will only be a matter of time before we see the first fully regulated 3D printed mod?

Production times come into play but it might be a niche market. And then of course the resin might not be conducive to higher wattage causing extreme Temps.

I look forward to the new age of 3D printing hell Boeing is looking at printing their engines etc.

It is 100% doable @Daniel, I've got one in my possession that were done in Capetown during 2014 (can't remember who did it - only keep it for some nostalgia).

https://gingervaper.com Has been 3d printing DNA and Yihi chipped mods for a while

There's plenty 3d printed mods on the market though. Arguably the best selling 3d printed mod out there is the Frakenskull BF Mech mod

 

[Daniel]

Ok clearly I've been uninformed been toying with the idea....

 

[dstroya]

...Frakenskull BF Mech mod

That looks awesome! Never knew it existed before seeing your post and now I want one so badly but they don't seem to be available anymore

This thread got me searching for 3d printing templates (as I have access to a 3d printer)... And now I am contemplating printing a mod

Damn you ecigssa for giving me even more fomo....

Also...

Anyone here have a broken mod that they are not using and want to throw away??? I have an itch that I need to scratch, and ordering parts out of the UK or US is expensive, so I'd rather strip a broken mod for the parts I need.

Yip, that's where I downloaded the files from.

Will see if I can salvage a 510 off a squonker, and then possibly use the internals of the offered rader to create a dual battery squonk mod.

Hmm... So the 3d printer I had access to decided last night that it doesn't like static discharge.

@BioHAZarD - Thanks for the offer, but I don't want to take the mod not knowing when the printer will be fixed. Don't want a situation where I get sent something and then later get accused of not following through.
