Ender 3 Scraper Guard/Tapper

Ender 3 Scraper Guard/Tapper

I find that with the coated glass bed for my Ender 3, adhesion is so good I often need to use a scraper just to get under the edge and lift the part to remove it. Once positioned on the corner of the part, a light tap can dislodge it, but the rounded hilt of my stock scraper is wreaking havoc on my soft knuckles. A wide-flanged flat hilt insert and this mini tapper make for comfortable work. With the flat hilt/stand thing below, storing the scraper on its end is very convenient, but it also puts the sharp end up. That might be a disaster waiting to happen for some of us. I've also smoothed and sharpened the edge of my scraper to get under those edges a bit easier, so it's an ideal scenario for removing forearm flesh, thus necessitating a storage guard. With this thing, you can have a storage guard along with a mini tapper. This is a perfect complement to the replacement flat scraper hilt/stand: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3676285 V2 Update: I fine-tuned the tolerance in the scraper blade slot to offer a more snug grip and reduce rattles and unintentional separation when not in use. I also tweaked the overall length of the handle to mate more perfectly with the steps in the scraper handle.
