Side-Entry Split Compression Fitting for 8 mm Rod
Created today
Description
A side-entry split compression fitting for 8 mm round rod. It clamps at any point along the rod without sliding over the end: load the rod through the 9 mm side slots in the housing and nut, then turn the nut about 180° so its slot sits over solid housing wall. It is not a hose clamp, ring clamp, C-clamp, or ordinary threaded connector; the split collet is driven into the cone and closes around the whole circumference of the rod.
Fit and assembly
- Rod size: 8 mm; collet bore: 8.4 mm.
- Parts: housing, split collet, compression nut. Print as three separate pieces.
- Housing: 22 × 2 mm external thread, 26 mm collar, internal cone from 15.6 mm to 11.8 mm, 9.2 mm bore.
- Collet: one full-length slot plus staggered slots so it closes evenly.
- Nut: hex body with an end wall that pushes the collet into the cone; 0.2 mm thread clearance for FDM.
- Printing: lay the parts out flat and lift the stack so the nut rests on the plate.

60 mm Square With Lengthwise Side Slots
What it's for A 60 mm square block with a thin slot cut into two opposite sides, useful as a test piece, a card or shim holder, or a slotted insert. Dimensions Footprint: 60 × 60 mm Height: 10 mm Slots: 5 mm deep, 0.4 mm wide, running the full length of each of two opposite sides, at mid-height Remix ideas Change the slot width to fit a specific sheet or card thickness. Add slots on the other two sides. Vary the block height or slot depth.
5 x 5 x 1 mm Square Block
A plain square block measuring 5 mm by 5 mm by 1 mm, flat on the bed and ready to print. Remix hooks Footprint: 5 x 5 mm is the starting value. Change it to make a tile, spacer or shim. Thickness: 1 mm is about five layers at 0.2 mm. Raise it for a sturdier piece. Edges: Add a small chamfer or rounding for a softer look. Keep it under 0.5 mm at this size. Pairs with: Use it as a test cube for tolerance checks, or as a base for a hole, text or a peg.
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.

Fire høje åbne beholdere til væsketryk
Fire åbne beholdere i forskellige former, 250 mm høje, til et fysikforsøg hvor trykket i væskesøjlen måles i forskellige dybder. Formålet er at vise, at trykket afhænger af dybden og ikke af beholderens form. Hver beholder printes stående uden support, og trykmålerens slange sænkes ned fra toppen. Mål Cylinder: Ø50 mm Firkantet prisme: 46 × 46 mm Kegle med bred top: Ø40 mm i bunden, Ø80 mm i toppen Kegle med smal top: Ø80 mm i bunden, Ø15 mm i toppen Højde 250 mm, væg 2,4 mm, bund 3 mm Remix-muligheder Højde (250 mm): Bambu Lab P1S og P2S har 256 mm i Z, så 250 er næsten loftet. Sænk den for mindre vandvægt og mere stabilitet. Væg (2,4 mm): Øg til ca. 3 mm for flere perimetre i PETG, hvis væggene skal være ekstra tætte. Topdiameter på keglerne: Ændr forholdet mellem top og bund for stejlere eller fladere sider. Hold hældningen under ca. 45° for print uden support. Variant: Tilføj en målestuds i siden til slange eller føler, eller en bredere fod til de smalle beholdere, så de står stabilt. Passer sammen med: en trykmåler med slange, en målestok langs siden og farvet vand for aflæsning.
Funnelpour — Screw Sorting Tray
Funnelpour is a shallow sorting tray built for one job: tip a handful of loose screws in, pick out what you need, then pour the rest back into the jar without scattering them across the bench. The floor slopes toward a single open spout in one corner, and the walls taper inward to funnel everything into a 20 mm pour opening. Features Sloped floor: about 8 mm thick at the far end, falling to 2 mm at the spout, so screws roll toward the pour edge. Funnelled walls: the back-right wall angles inward from the main body down to the spout. Open spout: a 20 mm wide opening with no lip, sized to feed a jar mouth. Wall height: 20 mm walls with 2 mm wall thickness keep screws contained while sorting. Dimensions Overall footprint: 120 × 90 mm Height: 20 mm Spout width: 20 mm Print notes Prints flat on the base with no supports needed. The slope runs along the length rather than diagonally, so a slight tilt of the tray helps clear the far back corner when pouring.
