When mounting lights on my enduro helmet, the standars plastic screws is a bit short and tend to loose their thread. This project is an attempt to print sligthly longer screws.
I tried printing the screw standing on it's head, but that becomes to brittle since the layers are orthogonal to the direction of force. So I experimented with printing them on the side with support. That creates screws strong enough that I can't snap them off with my hands at least.
The support creates residue in the thread so I printed a small tool that uses an M6 Threaded die to clean up the threads.
The threads could have looked better. But they seem to work for the purpose. I'd be happy to take some advice on how to make the threads better. I tried to print without threads but those screws snapped in the thread die.
