Backscratcher 3D print model

cgtrader

These two parts are designed to fit a 3/8dowel of any length, to make a perfectly sized backscratcher. In the example, I've used a 3/8 birch dowel (available at Home Depot), and finished with a light stain; they also have oak dowels. You can use any 3/8" diameter rod, such as plexiglas. The models are each presented two ways - with a base and without. The base was added to keep the model from falling over while printing, and the actual part is easily cleaved off the base after printing. The part-model-only files are provided for SLS-type printing, where no support is required. Both parts are scalable. However, to keep the hole diameter at 3/8, it's necessary to: 1) fill the existing hole, and position a 3/8 diameter cutting cylinder in its place; smaller versions will require a smaller hole, and matching cutting cylinder 2) scale the model as desired 3) subtract the cutting cylinder If you've used a wood dowel, stain or paint finish gives a lot of variations. The models (with base) were printed on an UpBox+, 0.15mm layer, fine resolution, Grey (more of an off-white...) Tiertime PLA. MAKES A GREAT PRESENT...!! Enjoy. Steve
