Lid for Pentel A5 mechanical pencil - Resin SLA/DLP only

thingiverse

<p>The lid on my favorite mechanical pencil tends to fall off and get lost. This is a problem, as it is required to feed new lead out the front of the pencil without damaging the eraser.</p> <p>I have uploaded two .stl models;</p> <ul> <li>Original copy - this is dimensionally identical to the original, but it wasn't robust enough in 3D printed plastic and would either split apart from hoop stress or give way, and end up slipping too far down the shaft </li> <li>Functional - More bulky than the original, and uses an internal ledge instead of a taper to hold onto the eraser holder. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and it works great.</li> </ul>
