A $500 knob for a Kitchenaid mixer

I told the Mrs that the printer was practical. She gave me side eye for days. Daaaays. Until last night when I delivered the much maligned "g.. da... moth.. f...ing KNOB!!!" to replace the one that was broken by someone that may be typing this post ... 10 years ago? Sure I can buy one for $5 and have it shipped here in 3 days for $3 more. But what's the fun in that!?!?

 

Half knob measured for FreeCAD model. Upsized the diameter but 2mm for "older hands. Exported body to STL and into Cura. Dropped the sliced output into octopi and waited. She's still not happy about the noisy toy in the dining room but at least she's finally not mumbling about that knob.

Show her how to heat the bed and she can keep side dishes warm while your eating.

Then I would need to stop printing things!
