Carburator choke control (for Tecumseh)

thingiverse

This text may not appeal to everyone, but it shares an experience of a broken snowblower. The choke shaft was damaged when someone used the machine as a stepstool during winter. To fix it, the user had to spend last winter starting the device with their hand over the intake. However, this year, things have changed as they now own a 3D printer! Printing the required part for the snowblower was an interesting and challenging task that involved tracing an odd-shaped cam on paper, scanning it, and then re-tracing it in Blender. The user printed the replacement part in white PLA on a Makerbot using high-resolution settings. They recommend using PLA or Nylon instead of ABS due to its reaction with solvents like gasoline. Additionally, the provided STL file has built-in rafts for support material.
