cyclone section 3 woodscrews

thingiverse

Human: Nearly identical to Captain_3d's cyclone dust separator remix with a minor variation. This version features small holes on one side only, designed for smaller woodscrews with button heads instead of bolts and nuts. First, predrill holes in the lid as usual. Next, locate a woodscrew with a wide head and attach a washer to it. Carefully heat the end of the wood screw with a lighter or torch until it's warm, then screw it into place while still hot - it will create its own threads. If you're unsure about the temperature, start with lower heat and gradually increase as needed; excessive heat can cause the plastic to melt or become brittle. While self-tapping screws are ideal for this application, standard woodscrews will also work effectively, although they may require a bit more effort.
