General When printing particulary brittle filaments like PET-CF the two idler wheels on the Nextruder can intruduce too tight bending radii and inturn break the filament. This is a Drop-in replacement for Nextruder idler lever. Based on…
Thinner Rod Design : Springs now stay tighter and more springy over time— no need for heat to maintain tension. Improved Groove Geometry : Still optimized to reduce filament stress and avoid breakage, while making spring removal smooth…
I designed this because I was trying to use Polymaker Fiberon ASA CF-08, and as polymaker says, it is an extremely brittle filament . It was so brittle I could flick it with my finger and snap it sometimes, and it consistently snaps…
I printed this model in PLA and it eventually snapped where the buckle deforms to fasten (circled in red). While this design is fine for injection molded polymers like nylon, it'll wear 3d printed materials with less durability. I…
The cylindrical rod now features optimized grooves that reduce filament stress during winding, preventing breakage that was common with the original design. It also makes removing the finished spring much easier. While the original model…
I made them in ASA to fasten synthetic roof slates for a garden project. This material resists weathering but is also tough and compliant. So it grips the surface well, spreads the screw force and therefore reduces the likelihood of…
Simple coaster with nomai symbol of the Brittle Hollow on it. Can be printed in black and white. This model already includes 0.2 mm gap to make assembly easier.
