Switch ring + lens bezel tool Fireflylite Z1 Artemis

Used 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height.

Print in hard materials like PLA, PA etc. Softer materials like PETG work but will result in slightly less max. torque/earlier material failure.

It will be tricky to align the tool on the button the very first time.

Tip:

• Align one specific tine/pin with one specific notch, rather than trying to rotate the tool randomly until it catches.

• Once you are sure the tines have engaged, press the tool on the button firmly once.

After that the tool will engage easier next time.

Do not try to screw the rings too tight.
Since the tines have very little contact area to grip on, the maximum torque you can apply before slipping and damaging the plastic is limited. (Although, you could always print out 2 pieces and ruin the first one to get a feel on how far you can go). 

Tip:

• Use your dominant hand to turn the tool while your other hand holds the flashlight and its thumb presses + stabilizes the tool on the button. You are less likely to slip this way / can apply more torque if needed.

Main goals for this design are:

• a nicer design than a simple cylinder

• ergonomic/feels nice in your hand

• nonetheless it gives you good grip

• resulting in adequate torque for it's small size

• uses as little material as possible 

Does the model hit those goals?

Please give feedback on how the tool fares, or tell me your wishes, suggestions or what your thoughts are, so I can improve the design further.

Side notes:

The dimensions of the model are sightly bigger than the actual measurements of the complementing metal rings. Probably due to material shrinkage and deformation.
