Hero Me Gen 3 - Hole Fix
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 6 years, 1 month ago
Based on the design by mediaman.
Many people, myself included, like this HeroMe design, but find that the holes to mount the actual duct below are too wide/loose and can't properly secure it on.
This is because measuring with a vernier caliper, the diameter of the screws including the threads are 1.9mm and the holes that were made in this design were 2.7mm +- aka way too large.
This remix is based on the original design, just with smaller mounting holes, at 1.6mm. This is so that the threads of the screw can cut into the plastic PLA properly and have a very nice and secure fit when screwed in.
Tested with an electric screwdriver and now it mounts beautifully so yeah, maybe someone else may appreciate this fix too.
Customised in 3ds Max.
