    Hey everyone

    First post in here I believe. I have a 2025 Tundra Limited TRD Offroad 4x4 with some kings suspension added onto it, KMC IMS wheels and Toyo's on 35's.

    I have a 3D printer that I am getting into printing some things. There quite a few things that are models that I would be able to print for some people. Designs that are not mine, but they are made public for people to use and print them.

    That being said, I am trying to think of things that I would be able to make in a CAD program (And Learn a CAD program), to create custom brackets and any carbon fiber parts that you guys could think of. I do have hardened stainless steel, with a heated bed and inclosed chamber, so I would be able to print using Continuous Carbon Fiber, Nylon Fiber, TPU, ABs, ABS Glass Fiber, ABS Carbon Fiber, PLA, So many to name. I have quite a few colors in stock now from glow in the dark to color changing/shifting filaments.

    Can you guys think of things that you'd like printed?

    I have seen custom switch pro pods. I can make some solid carbon fiber light brackets. If Someone has CAD that would like to try to make something and have me try to print it I am totally willing to try!.

    Im located in SoCal in Garden Grove. Im trying to make this 3D Printer worth its purchase price and I'm 50/50 on returning it. What do you guys think?

    I had a similar thread here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/3d-printing-3rd-gen-parts-ideas.152962/
    cup holder separators have been my favorite addition so far. I also scanned the trim to the left of the steering wheel to make a flush mount for my auxbeam switch. Next up I’m gonna make some rear facing S2 mounts for some ambers I have laying around. If you’re new to CAD, fusion 360 is free, solid works offers a “creator” license that I think is like $60-80 a year, and then onshape is a web-based solution. I prefer solidworks bc that’s what I’ve used in school and now at work, but Fusion is a great alternative. Sounds like you got a Bambu (could be wrong) - I have an X1C and love it. NylonX from matterhackers is super impressive. I’ve made headlight mounts for dirt bikes using that filament and they don’t budge hitting whoops at 60+.
