Fork Seal Driver tool for FOX 36 MTB Fork

thingiverse

This is a custom driver tool for Fork Seals, also known as Dust Wipers, on a FOX 36 Mountainbike Fork. While I appreciate the existing designs, I felt they used too much material. My goal was to create a tube-like tool without the inner guide, which isn't essential since the fork seal rests in a bed already. Additionally, I wanted the seals pressed slightly below the fork's surface, so I added a 0.25mm blockstop. This tool comes in two resolutions: 0.1mm and 0.01mm. The finer resolution is not strictly necessary, but it does look sleek. I made some edits to enhance this design. First, I enlarged the text on the tool for better readability. Next, I increased the diameter of the tool side to ensure a snug fit with the blockstop. Then, I decreased the handle's diameter to reduce material usage. Finally, I added an option with 0.05mm resolution. If you like my design, a small tip would be appreciated in advance!
