Okay, I don't know how useful this thing will be too useful to most people.
Anyway, what happened is somebody decided to use my snowblower as a stepstool, thus breaking off the choke shaft flush with the carburetor. All last winter I spent looking like a weenie, holding my hand over the intake to get it started. But this year I've got a 3d printer!
It turned out to be a surprisingly interesting and challenging part to build. For the odd-shaped cam, I eventually had to poke the thing through a piece of paper, trace it, scan it, and then re-trace the scan in blender! whew
