<p>Have you seen Locknoob make a cutaway without any power tools here - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7kGco-KszA">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7kGco-KszA</a></p> <p>I did too and tried this at home. All the cuts were crooked and lame.</p> <p>I designed this holder to make the cuts completely straight and aligned.</p> <p>Steps to work with the tool:</p> <p>Preparation:</p> <p>2 7x7 M4 nuts and 2 M4 screws to hold the lock in place.</p> <p>Insert the two nuts from the sides and tighten with the screws so that the screws don't block the cylinder from being inserted in the holder.</p> <p>Making the cutaway:</p> <ol> <li><p>Mark the positions where you want to cut with a small dot or a line.</p> </li> <li><p>Insert the euro cylinder so that one of the marks aligns with one of the slots in the holder.</p> </li> <li><p>If you are cutting the core inside the body of the lock (recommended) insert 2 drill bits in some other pin chambers so that the core doesn't move when cutting.</p> </li> <li><p>Put 2 hacksaws in the hacksaw handle (for a thicker cut) and cut away in the selected slot.</p> </li> <li><p>Repeat until all the places are cut.</p> </li> </ol> <p>You can clamp the holder in a vice where the thin area is. It will hold it in place while you are cutting.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>I3 MK3S</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>25%</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Hatchbox PLA White</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>You don't need supports if you print it with the nut holes facing down.</p></div> </p></p></p> Category: Tool Holders & Boxes
