Hi Printing an OCXO is trivial.
Printing a *properly working* OCXO is a bit more difficult ….. :) ===== The gotcha with the listed print time: The STL’s are set up for a very specific printer, print profile, and material. Unless you just happen to have exactly the same setup, there will be some trial and error folded into the process. I’ve printed a lot of gear trains over the years. They always take some fiddling ….. :( Bob > On Jul 25, 2020, at 2:42 PM, Tom Van Baak <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I’m guessing a couple hundred hours to print the parts and maybe the same > > sort of time to clean them all / fit them together ….. > > Bob, > > Good guess.
