So, having bought myself a heated filament clamp for “welding” filament scrap together, or joining short rolls, I found a problem immediately.
The instructions seem to assume the existence of a third hand, or second person to be able to hold in the required number of places while still operating the clamp itself. So I fixed it.
Some parts are remixed from the ultimate filament spool clip, because I needed something to hold the filament securely, but not too tightly. Ultimate Filament Clip Clamp by jajaum3d - Thingiverse
I suppose it would be better to say that I attached two of those clips to my design inverted and fixed in place.
The recessed portion in the base is designed to fit snugly with the following welding clamp: 1.75mm 3D Printer Filament Connector Gen2 3D Printer Accessories Easy Operate for Filament 1.75mm PLA / ABS / PC / PETG / TPU Material : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
The base has recessed indents for 6mm rubber feet: ROCHU Self-Adhesive Clear Rubber Feet Tiny Bumper Clear Feet Pads Clear Pads Funitures Clear Rubber Feet : Amazon.ca: Tools & Home Improvement
Support required:
- for the “clip”, use normal support otherwise the clip portion sags.
- for the “base” use tree support or the upper supports do not print correctly.
- the pins and bolts are print in place.
