AMS Stack with PVC tube

The Why Printing an AMS stack requires almost an entire roll of filament and about a full day, if not more, in print time. My goal was to cut on that without compromising on robustness or solidity because these accessories are not cheap. The How By replacing the tall side parts of other stack solutions with pieces of PVC tubing (the kind used for electrical wiring) I managed to cut down on both print time and costs, more than halving on both fronts. Assembly can be completed with either 12 screws (countersunk wood screws 3mm wide, 8-16mm long) or glue. The Variants I've elaborated two variants for metric pipes (25mm or 20mm tubes) and one for imperial ones (3/4in tubes). Gap or No gap? If you print the profile with a 3mm gap, once assembled you'll end up having some space on the left and right side of the bottom AMS, allowing you to move the bottom AMS at will. This allows the use of short posts along with something like the AMS Caster Wheels which will let you move the bottom AMS easi
