thingiverse

This fixture if comprised of a square, hexagon and a octagon stacked in such a way to allow material to pass through the center hole, it will hold up to 1 1/2" stock. Stock is then clamped into a milling vise the end to be milled is extended out of the vice the index jig can be on either side of the vice as long as the end mill will not be obstructed. . After each milling operation The material is then indexed using Precision Square . I had this on Thingie with a reference to the commercial one and the company starting complaining of intellectual property infringement. That's nonsense. No one has a patent on a hexagon square or any natural shape . It prints face up no supports. you will need to tap the holes and use a nylon tipped grub screw to hold it on the stock. It can be scaled up in your slicer as well. No need whatsoever to by the commercial one it's over priced and this is almost free. You can find a detailed how to on YouTube. https://youtu.be/B537uy8X0OI This object was made in Tinkercad. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/b7CXTvOn2dA
