Harbor Freight Heat Gun Handle

thingiverse

This is a replacement handle for the bigger harbor freight Heat gun. Mine broke off and has been a pain to use for while now. I have installed this on my heat gun and while I am new to 3D printing and still figuring out the printer settings, the handle works great. I used it to heat up a hose today. Not sure how many people this will be usefull for but maybe it will help someone. There are a couple test print files that can be printed to see how your printer settings are going to allow the handle to go together. This was design without any clearance between the shells to allow the tightest fit possible. If it moves around its more likely to break. Some sanding or trimming may be necessary for assembly. The best way to print them is how they are orientated in the STL's with supports. I have uploaded an example picture.
