Colony Clacker is a scaled down version of the awesome Clicky-Clack Fridge Door by tanaes.
Completely remodeled from scratch (not just resized), with added stealthy aesthetics, improved tolerances, and STLs that have been optimised for best slicer performance with standard Voron print settings.
Provides the same satisfying clack when closing the door, whilst also increasing chamber temps, and reducing noise.
Initially designed for Micron+, but will fit all 1515 based printers that use 3mm foam tape, with 3mm Panels.
1mm foam variants in the works... stay tuned.

All parts should be correctly orientated and should be printed with Standard Voron print settings.
There is an optional latch version with a larger surface area on the build plate if you get failed prints with the stock variant.
The print orientation of the latch is intentional to ensure larer lines aren't in the same direction as the latching mechanism, and to keep the printed aesthetic matiching the other printed parts.
Assembly is reletively self explanatory, the following images should help if you get stuck and can't access the CAD.
Ensure you superglue your magnets into the latch and the corresponding handle piece.
There are currently some extended skirts for the following PFA Printers. Improving the overall aesthetic and screen access. (Others will be added as they are created)
