    Are their other STL files for printing the slider and end plats for the 100 x 100 sold by e Racing Lab ?
    Just got 4 from them and need to know because I printed from the SFX-100 files and it is a big no fit .

    Link? What are you talking about? I thought eracing-lab provided everything, no 3D printing required...

    For me no. I just got some 100x100x300 from them. Only place that had any. The Germans would not sell said their would not be any for 60 days.

    It sounds like you are talking about end caps for aluminum strut? It doesn’t really matter, though. Aside from cost, and there are some fairly low cost 3D printers and kits available, it’s really easy to draw up and print your own parts - whatever they are. It sounds like you might have a printer but can’t say for certain. You just need to be mindful of stresses since 3D printed parts are still just plastic, but especially for stuff like end caps, those are easy.

    Also, you need to provide more details - especially in what you are asking. It’s not really clear what kind of help you need so the most people can do is make educated guesses.
