ASSEMBLY AND PRINT INSTRUCTIONS:

Parts List:

  1. Base (1x) - PLA

  2. Thumb Gear (1x) - PLA

  3. Helix Gear (1x) - PLA

  4. Jaws (3x) - PLA - NOTE YOU WILL NEED ONE OF EACH OF THE NUMBERED JAWS

  5. Jaw Tips (3x) - TPU/PLA - PRINT IN TPU TO AVOID MARKINGS AND GET BETTER CLAMPING

  6. Lid (1x) - PLA 

Start off the assembly by fitting first the helix gear in the center shaft and then the thumb gear on the corner shaft of the base. The gears will snap onto the base the first time you fit them. Avoid removing them unless necessary.

NOTE YOU WILL NEED ONE OF EACH OF THE NUMBERED JAWS

Print 1 of each of the numbered jaws and match them to the locations they will be fitted at the base. 

Then fit the jaws onto the Lid and push them all the way in so that they are all at the closed position. Then fit the Lid with the jaws onto the base. It uses a friction fit to stay in place. Note you will need to rotate the helix gear to find the starting position.  

You will need to lightly lubricate all gears for it to work smoothly.

Last step is to add the compliant jaw tips (If you have TPU) and then you are ready to roll!
