Some years ago I bought a small set of parallels, sold as follows :
- 4 Pair 5/32" x 3" Precision Parallel Set
- 1/2" - 7/8" Machinist Toolmaker 8 PC
- (2) 1/2 Inch; (2) 5/8 Inch; (2) 3/4 Inch; (2) 7/8 Inch
.They came without any kind of holder, so at the time I made a makeshift holder out of wood. I finally got around to making a better holder for them.
Looking online, I see that these same parallel sets are still being sold. You can get them without a holder, or for twice the same price you can get them with a holder! Or you can just print this holder for about a $1.
Print Instructions
Print in PLA using the 3mf or gcode files provided.
Note that the size designations you can see in the photo are recessed numbers in the print. I highlighted these numbers using some diluted acrylic paint.
