Efferman's Custom Parts

Most for the look, but tight(to tight) holes are possible. they are learly the same the function should be the same. They only differ in the look. -

Yeah processed is smoother, but you will not get a really smooth finish without sanding by yourself. Paint it by yourself. Colouring is a gamble. had a order with two parts which should be red. One was Dark red, the other one was orange. 99.9% of the parts are designed for sls. Only the city bullbars were made for fine detail plastic. But the tolerances in SLS are a gamble on crossholes. +-0,1mm is the difference between throwing through and using a hammer. This is why i try to avoid crossholes. this is to reduce the costs. every single piece costs 1.50€ handling fee, but if you connecting 50 pieces with connecting pieces you pay 1.5€ instead of 75€ handling fee. It is an extreme example, but it shows the principle. exactly. with enough play it would have to much slack in function. I have no experience with multijetfusion or SLA. I use SLS because it is rocksolid with a minimum wallthickness. This is my decission. Interlocking pieces are not good for processing and colouring. -

The test build has started and as always are all parts, which are not in the own stock, in the missing order. Two bugs are found, but overall it does work. -
Cada is a Chinese manufacturer of Sets made of liftarms and bricks. They have many unique parts, and even the 2 long pins have a different design, to avoid a exact copy of the lego design. Even lego is using now the flipflop beams, slightly modified, from cada in 11 and 15 modules. Cada doesnt make copys of Lego Sets or mocs and works together with some Moccers to bring their ideas to the market. The quality is quite good, but the friction in the Crossaxle connectors is sometimes a little to low.
