Lint Roller Mount

thingiverse

With the common lint roller holders the roller fequently comes off , but we can do it better :-) (at least the onces of us with a 3D printer , yeah). If you have a Cat or Dog, you most likely have a lint roller at home. The parts Koro Shaft R&L will be clamped together (with the lint roller in between the arms) , they are alighned to each other by the 2 pins. One side should be glued in (L or R Koro Shaft). The actual part which will grip into the hole of the lint roller is not done yet as i have to see which bearings i have available .The bearings will be connected via Pin (also not yet designed for the bearing reason) to the Koro Shafts L&R hole (press fit on both sides). So, if you got so far .... yeah , then take the Koro tab handle and srew it onto the assembled Koro Shafts. This should secure it nicely that it doesnt fall apart. Why a bone design handle ??? Ask my Wife :-) The Koro Shafts should be printed with support , the handle can be printed without support. As soon i have printed it i will upload pics and also the remaining parts (lets call them bearing pin & discs). All designed with freecad (will upload the bearing pin & discs freecad file too as your lint roller may be different). My lint roller width is 161mm , hole diameter is 38.4mm , outside diameter is 52mm. Happy Printing update 02.04.2019 added the pins and adapter for a 608 bearing + a longer handle with full thread to print standing. Printed the shafts L&R lying flat and had to cut off 7.5mm from the bottum (cura settings) as i didnt like how the tab came out . If printed standing the strenght of the part is much lower and the shafts maybe snap much easier. Will post some pictures later. (btw, tried wood filament but the filament i have on hand is cheap and cant be printed with a small nozzle + with the big nozzle the threads are very very tight). Update 23.04.2019 change the shafts design for easier printing, Handle for the same reason, Every fine with final at the end should be used for best results. (Optional Handle with bone or knob end, choose one :-). Happy April.
