CARL rotary trimmer blade adaptor

thingiverse

Purchased a CARL Rotary Trimmer some years ago - still working good but I can no longer get the 28mm blades with a hexagon hole in the middle. Created a new blade adaptor using a more common found blade (see image DAFA SKS-7 https://www.amazon.com/Viewmoi-Replacement-Quilting-Scrapbooking-Durable/dp/B086X451BS/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1). If you have any other type of 'flat' blade - you can just create a 'pin' to fit in the bearing. Had an old 625z bearing and over-engineered a pin-and-bearing mount for the blade, including a 8x3mm magnet to keep the blade in place for easy mounting - otherwise the blade keeps dropping before you can tighten the thumb screw. To prevent supports, and to keep the bearing/magnet in place I created a top and bottom print that can be glued together or just assembled without (held in place by the mounting screws). TOP and PIN_Parrot should be printed upside-down then no supports needed. PS: The recess for the blade in 'bottom.stl' should not be 'between the two glued parts (bottom and top) - see other image with yellow marking.
