Customizable knob for pot lid and drawers

prusaprinters

<p>Designed this as knob for a pot lid, but I'm sure you can use it for a drawer and a few other things too.</p> <p>Remember to block support at the top of the bolt, because we don't need support there.</p> <p>Also, I printed with PLA and it hold up very well, doesn't get soft or anything when cooking. Either the outside of the lid doesn't get that hot or my knob was annealed after a few hours on the stove.</p> <p>All properties of this knob is customizable.</p> <p>Feature:</p> <ul> <li>Customizable bolt size.</li> <li>Create cavity to insert metal hex nut, or without if you want to thread the knob yourself.</li> <li>Create whole knob or half a knob for printing without support.</li> <li>Customizable knob styles: inward, outward or straight.</li> <li>Customizable base size and top round knob size.</li> </ul> <p>The easiest version to print among my stl files is the outward_v2.stl</p> <p>BTW, If you're using octoprint, add the script below to your octoprint GCODE setting and you can do advance pause similar to the functionality on Prusa firmware. You can then pause mid-print to insert the hex nut.</p> <h3>After print job is paused</h3> <p>; relative XYZE</p> <p>G91</p> <p>M83</p> <p>; retract filament, move Z slightly upwards</p> <p>G1 Z+5 E-5 F4500</p> <p>; absolute XYZE</p> <p>M82</p> <p>G90</p> <p>; move to a safe rest position, adjust as necessary</p> <p>G1 X0 Y180</p> <h3>Before print job is resumed</h3> <p>; relative extruder</p> <p>M83</p> <p>; prime nozzle</p> <p>G1 E-2 F4500</p> <p>G1 E2 F4500</p> <p>; absolute E</p> <p>M82</p> <p>; absolute XYZ</p> <p>G90</p> <p>; move back to pause position XYZ</p> <p>G1 X{{ pause_position.x }} Y{{ pause_position.y }} Z{{ pause_position.z }} F4500</p> <p>; reset to feed rate before pause</p> <p>G1 {{ pause_position.f }}</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20%</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Reprapper PLA Blue</p> </p></p> Category: Kitchen & Dining
