This model is a REMIX of pejvl2000's model which is itself a remix of3Deddy's model from Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4148260
- Uses 2x 625ZZ Bearings 16 X 5 X 5 (Outside / Inside / Thickness)
- Press fit hole is exactly 16mm (you may need to adjust for your tolerance)
- Lock-Knob will still lock lever, but no longer unscrews on its own!
- Glass-like action!
I wasn't happy with the play and friction in the original lever-arm as well as the locking-knob slightly unwinding with each pull. I had a few 625ZZ bearings left over from the 10-pack I bought to build the press, so I designed the lever arm to include a press fit at the pin as well as a widened slot and rail for a bearing to smooth the action at the Dremelmel holder pin.
I also added a small 0.5mm depression around the slot for the dremel holder pin to add a washer between the slot and the holder to reduce friction between parts. I'm using a common 1mm m5 washer there.
