Brasscraft BC260 Cable Drum Machine Drill Attach Collar Replacement

Replacement for Part number 401-725550. I am not a mechanical engineer. Please use at your own risk. 3D Printing Thanksgiving Plumbing Miracle. Without the smell! I bought a brand new cable drum machine to snake out the clogged plumbing after yesterday's unwanted Thanksgiving Day food purge. We will not name names, but someone regularly overloads the garbage disposal, then quickly turns off the water to save money. As always, it was left to me to restore the family household to full readiness. The kitchen and laundry were out of service. The rest of the house could shower or purge at will. As I unpacked the box of my new power tool, I noticed that the new collar that mounts the new drill motor to the new housing was broken. In the box. New. Broken. Brand new broken. Sure. I know what you are thinking, return that and get a full refund. Where is the fun in that? For less than the cost of gas to drive back to Home Depot, I would create a better bracket clamp thing. I gathered requirements, took the necessary measurements, drafted up a quick design, and printed a quick prototype for fit purposes. I actually ended up using the second prototype. It worked. Like a charm. I successfully unclogged the plumbing, and never even had to use the final version printed out in tough nylon. By the way, the machine worked like a charm. I love my new Brasscraft cable drum machine.
