Fully printable Dremel table saw

thingiverse

This project is in development and now available online for improvement and optimization purposes. Currently, some components are missing but will be added soon. The created table saw can handle a variety of materials including PCBs, small wood pieces, metal, and soft materials. After conducting extensive research on Thingiverse and the Internet, I couldn't find any matching tool at an affordable price that was also easy to build. I therefore decided to create one myself and here is the prototype. To enhance personalization and modification of the part, CAD files have been provided, allowing users to optimize and customize according to their needs. However, please note that I'd love to hear about any modifications you make to the design. Please be aware that currently there's no option to adjust the cutting depth, although it can be modified with a saw blade diameter. Using a 40mm blade yields an effective depth of 2mm. I purchased these for prototyping purposes from banggood (http://www.banggood.com/10pcs-40mm-Diamond-Grinding-Wheel-Cutting-Disc-with-2-Mandrels-for-Dremel-Rotary-Tool-p-987968.html), at a cost of $10 to $20 without the Dremel, it gets the job done adequately. Your feedback and suggestions are highly appreciated in improving this project. Please leave comments below. Assembly instructions can be found below: Printer Settings Brand: RepRap Model: Prusa i3 Hephestos Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: Layerheight of 0.3mm Infill: Either 20% or 100%, my personal setting was at 20% Notes: The printer I used was with black PLA having a diameter of 1.75mm. Supports are highly recommended, particularly for the base plate and dust collector parts. The entire print process took around 14 hours. Materials Needed Printed Components: Baseplate (1 piece) Legs (4 pieces) Dremel Mount (1 piece) Coverage Component (optionally) Dust Collector (optionally) Stop Angle Component (optional) Other Materials: Dremel Tool (I personally used a Dremel 4000) Saw Blade (Minimum diameter: 40mm for cutting depth of 2mm) Counter sunk head screw Ø 2.5 x 12mm (Woodscrew): 16 pieces M4 Screw: 1 piece Washer M4: 1 piece Nut M4: 1 piece Assembly Process: STEP 1: Attach the baseplate, four legs, and eight screws to secure each leg at a corner. STEP 2: Mount the dremel mount on the base plate using four screws. STEP 3: Attach the stop angle component with the M4 screw, washer, and nut. Make sure the screwhead is beneath the angle, followed by the angle, then the washer, and finally the nut. This configuration allows for smooth sliding motion through the long hole. STEP 4: Insert other components and secure them properly using the Dremel tool. STEP 5: Mount the dust collector by screwing it into place on four predrilled holes surrounding the saw blade area
