EZ-Flywheel

thingiverse

The EZ-Flywheel is a culmination of the existing flywheels currently in use today, used to create a needle cutter to cut DTFB, and the likes. Trying to bend piano wire to a correct diameter without the proper tools became very tedious and mostly frustrating. My fingers were too sore to want to fiddle with it any more, and hence the mission of making an EZ attachment method, but also, if and when failures do occur, a quick and EZ way to repair the flywheel or needle to get back up and cutting. Thank you to David and Edward for their inspiration, and the sharing of knowledge they have provided. Hopefully this is my contributions to a better mouse trap, I mean flywheel.
