#0082 MK4 / XL Nextruder Extruder Hard Case - with Socks (2x)

*** Thanks for checking out this model! ***

If you appreciate what I'm doing, please consider buying me a coffee, and check out my other models!

**********

After I published my hard case for the MK4 and XL that holds 4 extruder assemblies, I started getting requests for versions of different sizes and for extruders with socks.  

In particular, I want to acknowledge the collaboration with @kerry_363 for the version that holds 4 extruder assemblies with socks on. You can find that model here. With the dimensions he gave me and the feedback and pictures he provided, I'm now able to share this model that holds 2 extruders with socks too.  (I don't use the silicone socks so I couldn't test it myself).

[Update, Aug 16, 2023]: added .stl files with no adhesion helpers.

Features:

1. The lid has a solid-feeling snap together clasp.
2. Each extruder pocket has a clasp to securely retain the stem from accidentally falling out.
3. Printed text to indicate how to remove each assembly from the case that reads: “<< LIFT HERE”
    

You can find my other Hard Case versions here:

1. MK4 Nextruder Extruder - with Socks Hard Case (4x)
2. MK4 Nextruder Extruder - no Socks Hard Case (2x)
3. MK4 Nextruder Extruder - no Socks Hard Case (4x)

Important: 

The lid is intended to snap securely into place.  To open for the first few times, just be a bit careful - but do not use a screw driver or any tools…it will damage the hard case. After a few open/close cycles, the lid becomes easier to open.

Note: This has only been tested with the Original Prusa Silicone Socks.

Recommendations:

1. This is a great model for PLA. 
2. Print with 2 perimeters, 15% infill (I used triangular)
   Note: tested with 0.4mm nozzle.
3. A 3-4mm brim is recommended along with ~15mm adhesion helpers at the corners to prevent the corners from lifting up.  I also recommend a 4mm brim.  See the .3mf file attached.
4. Printed in Prusament Galaxy Blue PLA.

Remember, you can earn some Prusameters if you post a pic of your make!  Plus, it would make my day to see it. ;-D

Happy Printing!

Accommodate only 2 extruders, and sized to fit them with socks on.
