STL files for the Ghost Fire Standard 1.0 pedal board, Line 6 G10TII wireless transmitter ...

I may have to invest in a 3D printer ... No, I’m not going to do that. The last thing I need is another expensive hobby that I dive into with gusto and then it takes a back seat to the next shiny object ... But still, it’s tempting, especially with how easy it is to have ChatGPT whip up an STL file for me. 

Wireless transmitter guitar strap clip. My first foray into 3D printing was to grab Andrew King’s perfect Line6 Relay G10TII Guitar Strap Clip STL file and send it over to CraftCloud.

Neutrik D-type Patch Panel. My second came about on the tram going from the parking structure to Disneyland, when I gave ChatGPT this prompt:

Design an STL file for a 3d printer for a right angle patch panel. The top piece should have two symmetrical holes centered on the short edge, each hole centered behind the neutrik d-type mounts. The top piece should be .75" deep. The side must have holes for two side by side neutrik d-type connectors, orient both d-type openings the same way (screw holes top left and lower right). The side should be just wide and tall enough to accommodate those neutrik mounts with an allowance for any bracing between the connectors. Reinforce (with plastic bracing on the back of the side piece, connecting to the top piece) as necessary to withstand inserting/removing 1/4" instrument cables. Use the attached as your inspiration.

Which generated this STL file. 

 

 

Ghost Fire hole cover. Next, this prompt: 

Create a base STL for this piece (a cap for one of the two circle holes on the Ghost Fire pedal board)? The insert part is 34.8 mm diameter with springy "fingers" that extend to an effective diameter of 36.67 mm. The cap is 39.55 mm diameter though that's flexible. The whole assembly is 10.94 mm deep, though that's also somewhat flexible. The idea is to have a base STL I can upload to ChatGPT and say, "add a centered 20mm hole" or "add a d-type mount" and then 3D print the modified STL. 

STL file. SCAD file. So far so good...

Argh, they’re only like $200 to start? (For the A1 Mini, early Black Friday pricing.) Here we go again...
