Chisel Caps

thingiverse

Set of 3 Chisel caps for Japanese Yataro Chisels. 3/8", 1/2", and 5/8" sizes available. Retention bumps on the inside ensure a secure grip, preventing accidental slippage. These bumps are intentionally designed to be slightly tight, allowing the chisel to cut in on its first use, ensuring a snug fit. The opening is carefully double chamfered for effortless insertion of the chisel. Finger grooves on the outside provide a comfortable grip, reducing the risk of slipping while handling a sharp chisel. A circular window allows you to inspect the polished edge of the chisel, while also minimizing material usage during printing. Prints with less material result in a more efficient process. PETG filament is used for its strength and softness, preventing damage to the blades. Each cap prints rapidly and easily, without requiring a raft or supports. Download files include a single file containing all three sizes, as well as separate files for each size. These designs can be scaled to fit other chisels.
