Printable Drawer and Cabinat door Handle

This is a small drawer handle I modeled based off of the classic Glass and Ceramic “knob” style drawer handles. Printing it out of clear filament did look pretty good, though I had some issues on my print because I didn't calibrate the flow for this filament and it caused some issues on the corners, but the model is designed specifically so that the part with the screw hole prints on the bed. It doesn't need any supports to print because no angles are greater than 45° when it is printed in this orientation. I printed it with a standard .4 mm nozzle. For best results I would use adaptive layer heights and ironing.

For the translucent filament I printed 100% density with concentric infill, but if you're going to print it out of an opaque material then I would recommend something like four shells, and 30% infill. Going with a small layer height or adaptive layer height is recommended for smoothness. The extra shells are to give strength for the screw that fits in the back to bite (or for tapping for the machine screw versions) without completely compromising the structure. The example prints that was done black was printed in hs pla at 350mm/s with four shells and 35% infill. 

My intention was to use some framing screws I have laying around, so that is the model you see in the examples. That worked great, but I did upload some versions with m3 and m4 threads modeled in. I didn't print those out to test since I really only modeled this as a means to an end.. In order to really get a good threading action right off the build surface you'd pretty much need to do this with Resin printing, but regardless I'd recommend using a threading tool if you have one on the print if you are going with machine screws. I've also included the fusion file with the smooth 3mm hole so that you can modify it for your particular fastener.

On a side note, I'd love to see someone print these in a translucent resin. :D I bet they would look super close to the original glass ones!
