Rasp Handle

thingiverse

Update Now remodelled with a larger, better-fitting hole that works perfectly. (Originally, I made the hole slightly smaller, anticipating a snug fit; however, PLA exhibits negligible stretch.) Story I needed a handle for an old rasp and discovered that Bunnings near me had discontinued selling handles. Rather than spending $20 on a new rasp, I thought, "Wait a minute - I can print one!" So, I retrieved my excellent callipers from Jaycar and began modelling in 3D Fusion. Created in Fusion 360 with a profile sketch and Revolve, fillet. Then, I crafted the tool and subtracted it from the handle using Combine. I have included the Fusion 360 files, featuring the target and tool, for anyone interested in properly remixing this design. Print Variables: Utilizing Cura This item was printed vertically, with an 18mm radius raft. Skin: 4 layers Infill: Triangle pattern (30% is more than sufficient) High-quality printing is recommended; in my case, it took approximately 12 hours. It should be possible to turn off support if printing vertically from the hole side up.
