Prepare top paper roll drive
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
We use epoxy glue to stick the sand paper on abs printed parts. Epoxy don't stick on ABS so we prepare the parts with light sanding and cyanoacrilat glue. Be careful with cyanoacrilat glue, don't stick your finger.

|
#. Print 3 paper roll **link to stl**.
|
|
#. Laser cut some piece of 180 sand paper.
|
|
#. Tap the screw hole with an M3 tap.
