Open ended bar clamp.
Cracked a bar clamp from over tightening? Cut it off and replace it with this, it has an open ended design so it can be fitted without taking apart the frame. It slips onto the 8mm threaded rod.
Very tight fit, some careful cleanup with a 8mm or 8.5mm drill bit maybe needed.
Not as strong as the original but it does the job. Works best if printed with ABS as ABS is more flexible. If printing with PLA, be careful not to overtighten as it will crack. This is exactly the same as the original bar-clamp for the Prusa Mendel but with a slot cut into it.
OpenSCAD provided is slightly modified from the original. Some dependencies from the original source are needed.
