LOL, people have been asking at least once a year for a while now and it seems nobody wants to share those files anymore.

I know you guys have it. I dare you to send me a link.

I would request the file from Exile Machine, but he is not accepting messages here. Can anyone advise. I have a number of the MIAD right handed Backfins and a couple are cracked and need replacing, just about all the printed retention springs are broken or lost. I would like the replace the cracked ones with fresh printed ones to evaluate the longevity compared to the VISM ones and similar. Maybe a first world problem, but can someone help a brother out?

I guess I COULD just buy this slightly modded version in a three-pack for $40

Do you need to remove the grip from the rifle to remove the backstrap? I cannot remember.

Does the the thumb rest make that big of a difference compared to grip sleeves without it? I have regular grip sleeves on my two featureless ARs.

Night and Day difference.

Thanks to the forum member who got me the GCODE file. Doesn't look like it is going to work unfortunately... I believe I need the STL file unless someone has a GCODE for a Longer LK5 PRO... or a Gcode for a Anycubic Chiron?

I have a couple of CAD/CAM software that I could try and reverse engineer it and save it as an STL if you're interested.

Thanks. I am interested.

There is supposed to be a way with some files, but it can be problematic. I have only tried an online converter so far and it didn't like the file at all, so no conversion was even attempted. I only have the LK5 Pro slicer software and the latest CURA.

I guess I am giving up on this quest, hahah. Was not that important, but I thought it would be fun to print a gun related item myself. I have a pile of those one-piece Xi Jinp Jism grips that don't fall apart after a few range trips anyway. I am doing real important print jobs like collapsing Katanas and Deadpool busts like all the other nerds. WTF.

I still interested in helping, but you never sent the file.

[crufflers]

I swear I did... check your spam?

[crufflers]

It is in my sent items from Jan 22... 1.9 meg Gcode file.

I resent it. Thanks for any help, but I think we need the STL file.
