Brass Prep Station

thingiverse

Thanks to msgbean for the wonderful original design and for sharing it. Thanks to coryd for enlarging the bearing holes in the Mid and Main Plates. I made the following modifications to suit my needs and use the electronics I had on hand: - Extended the lip on the "Top Plate" to catch more of the shavings. - Removed the handle attachments on the "Main Plate." - Removed the power supply connection on the "Bottom Plate." - Modified the "Lower Spacer" to include holes for a DC power plug, mini toggle switch and an LED. - Combined the "Tool Holder" and "Dust Collar" into one print that allows you to embed 8-32 non-locking nuts using a "Pause at Height" gcode insert. Use a drill to then lightly drill out the top material and reveal the embedded 8-32 nut threads. I think a cover lid would be a nice addition but I haven't got that far. UPDATE 8/14/21 I created a lid. It's a tight fit, covers the bolt heads, and stays within the original footprint of the brass prep station. Print it upside down to minimize the supports needed.
