I think handscrew clamps are neat so I made one.
Assembly instructions:
- Match the symbols on the pins with the symbols on the jaws and insert them in the matching holes
- With the jaws flat on a table, pinch a screw between them and twist the screw to thread it into a pair of pins. It's best to thread into both pins simultaneously so the screw will be centered
- Repeat step 2 for the other screw
- Screw handles onto opposite corners. Check that the clamp functions as expected
- Glue each of the handles in place with a drop of superglue
Troubleshooting:
- Be aware that half the threads are left handed
- If something isn't threading on try twisting it in the opposite direction
- If a screw isn't threading into the pins try flipping it around
Description of files:
- Each .3mf includes three build plates or clumps of objects
- The first plate contains all the parts for a set of clamps, with a throat depth and capacity of 50mm
- The second plate contains longer jaws and screws, for a throat depth and capacity of 170mm
- The third plate contains a 2x upscaled version of the first plate with clearances adjusted to match the upscaling. Throat depth and capacity are 100mm
