3D printed long reach pliers V4. The pliers are designed by me and a remix of a model that I posted. The earlier model required an M3 bolt and nut, this one has a "twist and lock" design

Print instructions

infill
I printed with 20% infill. The only part that needs 100% infill is the moving handle (with cam) up past the hinge hole. (I had the cam snap off on one of the pliers.)

Supports
I used the option to add support material on buildplate only. This should ensure that the holes stay open

Orientation
The models are not correctly oriented for printing.

Best Orientation of the top part for printing is to have the v-grove pointing up

Best orientation for the base is flat on it’s side with the logo pointing up

Best orientation for the jaw is with the cam and teeth pointing up

Best orientation for the separate handle is flat on its side, with the little cam pointing up. The other way around would require a lot of extra support material.

All the parts should fit on a 200x200mm printbed.
