This downloadable file includes the core STL files for the Mac Daddy frame, along with remix variations found in the dedicated Remixes folder. These files allow you to print the standard frame or opt for alternate designs like Pew's and Yeezy's remixes, which support 1913 mounts and unique styling. Detailed build instructions are accessible via a PDF guide at the provided link, ensuring you have step-by-step guidance.

For optimal results, print with a high-strength filament like PETG or ABS to withstand the mechanical stress of firearm use. Use a layer height of 0.2mm or lower for better detail and structural integrity. Ensure proper bed adhesion and consider adding supports for overhangs in complex areas of the frame.

Printer Compatibility & Settings

The Mac Daddy frame files are compatible with most FDM 3D printers capable of handling detailed prints, such as Ender 3, Prusa i3, or similar models. For materials, PETG or ABS is highly recommended due to their strength and heat resistance, essential for a functional firearm frame. Avoid PLA, as it lacks the durability needed for this application.

Set your printer to a nozzle temperature of 230-250°C for PETG or 240-260°C for ABS, with a bed temperature of 80-100°C. A print speed of 40-60 mm/s is ideal to maintain accuracy, and infill should be at least 50-75% for structural robustness. Ensure proper ventilation if printing with ABS due to fumes, and always double-check your printer’s calibration for precision.
