A tool to make loading your RepWinders, with a pretensioned rewind spring, into a dry box easier. Pretensioning your RepWinder rewind spring/axle before placing it in your RepBox allows the filament spool to retract/rewind right away, rather than first having to build tension in the spring from filament use.
The tool is printed in two parts, the tool head and the handle, and then assembled using two M2x16mm screws and two standard M2 hex nuts. There are three model files available, one with both parts in a single file, and separate files for the head and handle for printing in two different colors and/or materials. There is a pocket modeled into the end of the handle for an optional 9.5x3.2mm disc magnet, useful for storing the tool on, or hanging it under, a metal/magnetic surface.
Print Recommendations:
- Recommend using a 0.6mm nozzle at a 0.3mm layer height (for a 0.4mm nozzle, use a 0.2mm layer height).
- 3 perimeters.
- 1.2mm top/bottom thickness.
- 15% infill.
- Whichever material you prefer; I used PETG.
Parts List:
- 1x Tool head
- 1x Handle
- 2x M2x16mm rounded/button head machine screw (Note:M2x16mm socket head cap screws will work, but the screw head will protrude from the handle a bit).
- 2x M2 standard hex nut
- (Optional) 1x 9.5x3.2mm disc magnet
Assembly:
Assembly is the same as described here.
Note:
Designed for use with Filament Dry Box Bracket for RepWinder.
