Description
Great design for a 3D paddle with just a few modifications including: Added side walls to the base to prevent accidental keying Rounded the base bottom for a better feel Added screw holes to bottom to facilitate additional stuff Created a add-on piece to facilitate a Velcro strap on the bottom. Can be used to strap on a leg, wrist or even finger. I have included Adam's original files. My modifications are just to the base piece and the addition of a strap piece. I also included a handy wrench tool to help put on the 3.5mm plug nut and a set of tweezers to help hold the 3.5mm jack when inserting it into the paddles. I do all my design work in OpenSCAD (which is free to download). The source file is included. I run a non-standard 0.6mm nozzle on my PRUSA so I am not including the sliced files. You can generate them for your printer from the STL files. Here is the Amazon links to the additional hardware I added: 2.2x10mm Self Tapping Screws Phillips Pan Head Screw: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NTJ95W1 ONE-WRAP TAPE 1/2" X 25 YARD ROLL: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071Y3TVNT
