Repair set for broken drying rack with M4 threaded inserts
I saw the repair kit for the broken strings on a drying rack by STxS.
I tried it and it fitted for my drying rack. This remix replaces the M4 nut holder with threaded inserts, because I have more of them around, then M4 nuts. ;)
I remodelled the lower half with the corresponding cutouts:
The upper part is still the original part and shared here for completness.
Threaded inserts
The threaded M4 insert are probably not that easy to purchase in small quantities for makers, but I have a bunch of them laying around.
You can remodel the necessary opening for your inserts easily even in the slicer.
I use this threads: HITSERT 0931 104 0083
Update May 2025
I added a hole to bend the rod and secure it in there.
I also added a version for M4 nuts again, so other people can use this new version.
Print instructions
Print in PETG on the side with 0.2 mm layer height, without support.
Previously, I recommended PLA, but it didn't last long under load and in the sun. Use PETG!
Use your soldering iron at 250 °C and push the inserts in or use the version with M4 nuts.
Further remixes welcome
This is my onshape document of the part.
