Dewalt DC500 Vacuum Clamp

pinshape

I designed this vacuum clamp for my dad's Dewalt DC500 Shop Vac after the original broke, so I decided to create a new one that would adhere to the constraints of 3D printing and material mechanics. The optimal print settings for this design are 0.15mm layer height, three shells, supports enabled, and either a raft or brim, resulting in a solid product. For prototyping purposes, I printed it out of PLA, but ABS will also work well if not even better.
