Probe of the Month March 2016

Our first 3D printed part!  It's an M5 extension with fittings in both ends.  It's shown with a 2.5 mm ruby stylus attached.  The extension is 50 mm long and 11 mm square.  We printed it using a proprietary blend of carbon fiber and nylon for ultimate rigidity.  As shown, it weighs 12.08 grams.  The extension itself weighs just 4.76 grams.  That's about 35% of the weight of a standard 50 mm long aluminum extension.  We expect big things from this technology!  Stay tuned.
