    Askar must have taken your feedback, I just got my 151PHQ yesterday and now it comes with a clear fine focus knob cover similar to your 3d printed one.

    Dear, thanks for your video. The files for Frecad have a mistake, the MeLE Quieter 2 Losmandy Dovetail Clamp, and the PPA LosMandy Dovetail Clamp are the same.... There is missing a part..., please can you check?, probably is missing the clamp, the body is ok.

    • @darkskygeek
      @darkskygeek  7 місяців тому

      No, they’re not the same. In FreeCAD, look at the model tree. You will have to display various parts (select then hit the space bar) CS!

    Thank you for those!! Is there another way to get the nut in the losmandy holding brackets? I will have to get them printed by a shop and they will not stop to insert a nut at the proper time....

      Ah! That’s tough. Sorry, I don’t have a good answer for you. But if you know someone who has a 3D printer, or maybe try with your local library, it’s a better option than having a shop print these out. CS!

      ​@@darkskygeekHow is the Q3 mini PC attached to the bracket?

    • @darkskygeek
      @darkskygeek  Рік тому

      I cannot know for sure since I don’t own the Q3. That being said, the 3D model is relatively easy to update and you should be able to tweak it to accommodate any change in the position of the screw holes between the Q2 and Q3. CS!

      @@darkskygeek it looks like a Q2 or Q3 in your video. They are identical.

    Do you have issues with fine pitch threads? I have been making 3d printed accessories for a while and thread pitch has been an issue for me

    • @darkskygeek
      @darkskygeek  9 місяців тому

      M42 x 0.75mm works fine, but it requires the right slicer settings.

      @darkskygeek I have ordered a threading tap and want to experiment with that for threads that hold bolts. But I tried to make a threaded blank 1.25" filter for dark frames and that didn't go so well
