(prob works)Clamps by Jasper1984

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

NOTE the status is: Probably it works, but i currently dont feel like testing or developing it further. If you try it please provide feedback for others. (be specific) clamp_ and dry_ are more likely to work than tiny_.
Maybe a tip if it doesnt work, destroy the connection mechanism and heat a metal wire through both parts(with correct axis), and twist those together.
Clamps
Clamps inspired on thingiverse user KidCrazy's 'KCS' clamp. Untested. Intended improvements are:
Made it parametric.
Guides to center it.
Holes to glue some filament on in order to hold a regular spring instead of a plastic one.
(optional, parametric)Gap behind the teeth improves hold pn clothing.
Potential improvements
Many;
Springs are not properly parametric(actually left out the dry_spring.stl because it didnt work well)
Assembly could be easier. (That might mean just turning the guides off)
Parameters based on what the user want, and that dont require fiddling to get right.
When the distance between the prongs is small relative to the length the handles collide, increasing their distance would help.
More defaults.

As usual development versions on github, also released on fabfabbers.
