I think his measurements were likely off, probably used too much force when measuring, not considering how much the tool will yield to pressure. Measure close to back of the jaw, ensure there's no gap there, and the blades are parallel and flat make contact surfaces minimal on critical dimensions only can allow for more spring, account for 2-3% shrinkage of PLA and 1-2% on PETG, and you'll be ok. It doesn't make sense to try to make it match perfectly for the whole profile, unless absolutely necessary, no injection moulded parts are like that, for good reason.

How did it turn out? I'm thinking about printing one.

@@B-Rex I’ve been too busy to get it printed.

​@REX or the perspective was off trying to take it off of a photo. Many ways to compound an error

Negative horizontal expansion, also just design with some gap. Also the rotary tool... After just one print. I'd redesign and print

but only for the spare blades.

@@z0bi_ yeah, and it’s crappy

He also explicitly said he wanted to store them with the tool.

I love how this argument immediately got destroyed 3 times over

Get the tool with storage inside the handle.

It's fusion 360, it's free for personal use too

I'm pretty sure he said it's a model he found online

@@tharnok5191 some geezer asked what software he was using and deleted his comment lol

@@tcroft lol

Those boxes are great, i used one to make a cusome sized first aid box to fit in a pouch. Its nice aslong as you dont recess somethining into the top and go too deep and punch a hole through

Also available online and people should know that the tip is meant to spin. Most people think something is wrong with it and leave a bad review because of this but its meant to do that for deburring the inside of pipes.

Never knew about this tool until I went to MOS school for welding and machining

Could you use it on pieces for board games when they have those plastic you have to pop out?

Make sure to get the one that lets you store a dozen blades in the handle.

@@cgoodwin256 that’s how mine is, never lost a tip yet

Cut away from you is always the best course or maybe wear some protective gloves.

This tool is actually banned in Finland. So many injuries but peoples stil think it's safe and then... Ouch....

​@@JJ79_so how do you deburr in Finland? Burr is also dangerous you know😢

@@awkwardsaxon9418Many ways to do it better and safer

Also, never resharpen the blades by yourself, and don't use a blade that has the ball at the end remove. I heard from an older machinist that a coworker of his had done that and managed to slice open most of his forearm when it slipped.

Good point! 👍

essentially using a comparator to line the shape, but with a few thou for wiggle room

@@xxIONBOMBxx yes. If you scan it you can use it as a template completely

Surely photographing close up would make it bigger, as you’re projecting onto a standard grid behind?

@@markrussell8391 correct

Those blades are shite for steel. They hold a little on aluminum but eventually the cutting edge chips away and they cant be resharpened to save your life. Amazon chinesium is not comparable to the big msd bibles cheapy tools

The ball on the end is also crucial for safety, it prevents you from accidentally slitting open your whole forearm if it slips.

Check if you have a Micro Center near you. They do $99 off coupons for the Ender 3 Pro ($199) pretty regularly. Picking one up on Monday hopefully

@@DevilDog36th thank you I will have to see if I can get one online from microcenter as I just checked and it's a 264 mile round trip to the nearest one to me.

@@frankdelucey2137 unfortunately it is in-store only as far as I know. Thankfully I'm only 45 minutes from the only one in my state

Fusion360 is the one shown!

or a old free version autodesk 123

never thought of it..am using 360 too free version

Literally all of them, but the one he's using is Fusion 360.

You can trace in solidworks using import sketch picture tool and sketching on the pic too

Wow, thank you so much!

Deburr the holes, and draw file the edges.

Only fancy whips have a cap on thw butt to store blades. These cheap aluminum tube whips on Amazon do not. You're probably thinking of those red ones with the black cap on the booty I forget what brand they are

I could see how that works well. In the machine shop I used to grind a few to a sharp point because they work better getting inside of small holes and running corners when they are shaped like a cats claw, however Ive slipped off steel and cut my hands gooder than a bitch that way. Nothin better than walking to the sink leaking blood over deburring😂

You know I always have trouble finding burrs. I don't know why, even on inconel where the burr is more pronounced... I'm not a great machinist tho...

Woohoo!

Stls are harder to edit u can use mesh mixer

To my knowledge there is no good way, and I have looked. Something about the fact that the stl's are made of triangles but modeling programs want squares.

New prusaslicer 2.6 will be a godsend for this sort of editing hopefully. Keep an eye out for its release

The best I've figured out to do is to just throw it into Blender or some other mesh modelling program. Trying to turn it into a solid never works properly.

Stls are basically uneditable 😂😂😂 sometimes I can import the stl to another program like alphacam or solidworks, save as a parasolid xl or Iges file (they generally work the best) and import it back into fusion again like 80% of the time it imports as a solid, this works with any file that creates surfaces instead of solids

Burr whips in the Machining world

It's not a reamer, a reamer is basically a really precise "drill"

That’s exactly what it’s used for! Except it’s not for making a smoother joint, it’s for eliminating the potential for future clogging. The tiniest piece of plastic sticking out from sawing the pipe can potentially act like a hook for a strand of hair - and then another strand, then some dead skin cells, then eventually a fully clogged pipe.

Fusion 360

The feature is the canvas tool. Take a picture import it into fusion then size the canvas according to the item dimensions. Then it’s a case of tracing the outline in a fusion sketch. You can then hide the canvas if required and just work with the fusion design once you no longer require reference to the original image.

@@JimboJet737 Thanks, man. I've not even heard of sketch. I'm gonna go grab that. I'm using student licensenses while i can get away with it.
