8/15/22 Initial Fitment of T500 in Motor Saver + Initial Fitment of SendCutSend Parts

 

Received the SendCutSend parts - cut and bent 5052 aluminum. Pretty cool how the parts have vacuumed formed plastic on a cardboard backing

In the CAD the top of the skis where the outer plates secure the skis to the aluminum was 10.25” apart. 


On the actual WAM-V the plates are 10.5” apart. 


Lessons learned is to measure the actual WAM-V placement instead of relying on the provided WAM-V CAD

Test fitment of the T500 on the enlarged motor savers. 


The m4 screws needed to be drilled into the mounting holes to melt the plastic around the screws for final dimensions. This is done by inserting the screw through the hole and spinning the screw, the friction between the screw and the PLA forms the desired shape of the plastic around the screw. 


Alternatively, we could have used longer m4 screws but our local hardware store’s longest m4 screw length was 16mm
