Screw Cutting Guide for DeSteiner Model 1887

thingiverse

For those in the US the equivalent screws are: `#8 x 1/2"` - Qty:16 These are going to be the main screws for the entire body `#8 x 7/8"` - Qty:3 These are for attaching the handle to the body. Fortunately enough at my local Lowes the #8x1/2" screws were sold in an exact pack of 16. However, the #8x7/8" screws were sold in a pack of 8 so you'll have some extra. (see picture) But wait! You also need two set of screws cut to a length of 5mm for the lifter. That's where this comes in. Print two of these along with whatever part you need. Screw them onto two of the extra #8x7/8" screws, hold onto them using a set of vice grips, and use a dremel to cut them to the desired 5mm. If you want, also use the dremel to clean up some of the rough thread edges from the cut. It'll make it easier during assembly later. Keep in mind that the screw will get very hot from the cutting so be careful! Enjoy and thanks to DeSteiner for the awesome build.
