fishing whip QR tip adapter

thingiverse

Human: A versatile adapter that converts a standard ring style fishing whip tip into a quick release clip system. Printed with precision, this adapter features an enhanced +3% axis increase, achieved through a 0.1mm layer height and a 0.2mm nozzle, all while maintaining a print speed of 20mm/s with strategically placed supports. The optimal printing orientation is horizontal layers, which are essential for maximizing the clip's strength. While it's uncertain how this adapter will perform with a 0.4mm nozzle, feel free to experiment and test its capabilities. To assemble the adapter, simply print it out, clean up any excess material, and carefully work the main clip with a flat needle file until the ring can be slid onto it while maintaining a snug fit. Next, gently insert the ring tip of the whip into the adapter, taking care not to force it too much due to its tight fit. Once inserted, slide the ring off the clip, then use a drill bit or a small round object to carefully enlarge the holes on the side until a piece of filament can be pushed through with pliers. Be patient as this process requires some finesse. Cut off the excess filament as close to flush as possible and file it flat. Finally, slide the ring back into place, and your quick release clip system is ready for use.
