Folding Hex Easel Vise With Strut Links
Created today
Description
A folding bench-vise and easel stand: a honeycomb-cut backrest on a hinged base ledge, two jaws driven by threaded crank rods, and a rear support leg held by a two-stick folding strut on each side.
The strut is built from two flat sticks joined at an elbow pin. Push the leg in and the elbow bends, so the two sticks fold down alongside each other and act as one. The sticks sit outside the handwheels in X, so they pass beside the cranks and not through them.
Remix hooks
link_k(0.52): stick length as a fraction of the base-to-knee distance. It must stay above 0.5. Higher values give a bigger elbow bow and a longer reach.plate_lean(20°) andleg_ang(25°): raise them together for a steeper recline.rod_z(60 mm) andjaw_x(27 mm): crank height and jaw start position.hdandwallin the hex cutter (11 mm and 3 mm): change them for a denser or sparser honeycomb.phone_w,phone_tandphone_d(80, 10.5 and 3 mm): the phone slot.leg_lock: switches the knee stop tabs on or off.
Pairs with
- Longer or thicker stick bars (4 mm wide now) for heavier loads.
- 4 mm filament offcuts as hinge and elbow pins.

Zwei übereinanderliegende Drehscheiben mit je 75 mm Durchmesser, verbunden über einen Zapfen am Rand (8 mm Schaft, 14 mm Kopf, 28 mm von der Mitte). Der Zapfen ist mit einem roten Punkt markiert. Maße, die vor dem Druck zu prüfen sind Lochdurchmesser in der unteren Scheibe: 30 mm, mittig, durchgehend durch 4 mm Material Spiel zwischen Zapfen (8 mm) und oberer Scheibe (9 mm Bohrung): 0,5 mm Abstand Lochrand zu Zapfenkopf: ca. 6 mm Hinweise Die obere Scheibe ist über dem Loch geschlossen. Die Scheiben liegen nur 0,5 mm überlappend aufeinander und können beim Druck verkleben, wenn das Spiel zu knapp ausfällt. Nicht für Zapfen-Verschiebung außerhalb des 28-mm-Radius ausgelegt.
Drehscheibe
Zweiteiliger Aufbau: eine Klebeplatte mit Achse nahe am Rand und eine darüber drehbare Scheibe, beide Ø74 mm. Die Scheibe schwenkt um die außermittige Achse und hat am gegenüberliegenden Rand einen gebogenen Schlitz. Remix-Ansatzpunkte Durchmesser: 74 mm, lässt sich für beide Teile gemeinsam ändern. Achsposition: 26 mm aus der Mitte. Weiter außen lässt weniger Wand um das Senkloch. Schlitz: 6 mm breit, etwa 60° Bogen, ca. 2,5 mm Wand zum Rand. Länge über den Winkel anpassbar (z. B. 90° oder 120°). Loch in der Klebeplatte: Ø8 mm, 27 mm vom linken Rand (Blick von unten), 2 mm über der Mitte. Passt für Schraube oder Senkung.

Hoof Evener Thumb Ring 1.2
A low-profile thumb ring designed to index a farrier's hoof-evener ruler. 1/8" Slim Ring: Keeps bulk out of the way while holding the thumb perfectly on zero. D-Profile Peg: The 6mm mounting peg is shaved flat on the back, allowing the entire model to print dead-flat on the bed without any supports. Flex Slit: Open front ensures it can comfortably accommodate varying thumb sizes.
Hex Tube 40 mm Tall With Center Bore
A hex tube, 4 cm tall, for when a round spacer or standoff spins or rolls where a flat-sided one would hold still. The 2.5 mm bore runs the full length so a rod, wire or screw passes straight through. Key dimensions Height: 40 mm Width: 5.15 mm point to point Center bore: 2.5 mm diameter, through the full length Printing Print standing upright, no supports needed. Walls are thin at the hex flats, so use at least 2 perimeters and a small nozzle if possible.
Plate With Offset Square Pad
A flat 28.5 × 40 × 3 mm plate with an 11 × 11 mm raised square pad, 0.5 mm thick, centered in X and set 2 mm from the Y- edge. Remix hooks Pad thickness (0.5 mm): a multiple of your layer height keeps the pad clean. 0.5 mm is about 2 or 3 layers. Pad offset (2 mm from the Y- edge): move it along Y to centre it or push it to the other edge. Plate length (40 mm): the pad is 11 mm, so any length above roughly 15 mm still holds it. Pairs with: a label, a sticker, or a second pad in a different colour for a multi-colour swap.
Drill Press Column Tray with Key Slot
A C-shaped clip that snaps around a 60 mm drill press column, with a 120 mm round dished tray attached at the front. The tray holds drill bits, chuck keys and small parts within reach while you work. The clip opening is narrower than the column, so it snaps on and grips by spring tension. Lead-in lips on both sides of the opening guide it onto the column. A slot on the front rim of the tray holds the chuck key, so it stays off the floor. Clip: fits a 60 mm column, 30 mm tall, 5 mm wall Tray: 120 mm diameter, 18 mm tall, with a 3 mm floor and a dished cavity Key slot: on the front rim, 9 mm wide, sized for a chuck key shaft Print the clip upright with the tray on the plate. PETG or ABS gives the clip better flex and durability than PLA.
