Guide Sleeve Fit Checker v1.12

thingiverse

Updated version here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2595645 Calibration for hole size, as well as X, Y and Z for SLA printers. My guide sleeve wouldn't fit inside my first DLP print, it did fit into an FDM print with a 101% scale. I needed a way to find the precise sleeve offset for my surgical guides. What I didn't know is that you need to offset your custom sleeve sizes in Blue Sky Plan. I decided to design and print several different guides, but instead I designed a "pseudo guide" with five sample holes in it. I'm releasing this for free to the 3D dental community. My one request is that credit is attributed to me for any derivative designs. One scenario I can think of is someone modifying this for all the BlueSkyBio implant sleeves. To customize this in your web browser, I've provided the Tinkercad file at the bottom of the description. Don't know how to use Tinkercad? Here's a screencast showing how to change the dimensions of the sleeve holes: http://youtu.be/blqF-dIh0Dc?hd=1 What's new in version 1.12: 1) I shrunk the base holes. 2) I cleaned up some duplicate polygons. 3) I got the 80mm mark to show. 4) I added the name of the implant for identification. What's new in version 1.1: 1) I added the 4mm platform to get above the squish, and then added "skis" to raft it up. Thanks to Barry Voltz for suggesting these features. 2) I added 80mm X calibration (The arch and the 3mm stilt should both be 80mm long). 3) I added 20mm Y calibration feature to the side. 4) I added 10mm Z calibration feature to the side. You can also caliper the rings themselves--they are 5mm thick by default. 5) I reduced base holes and increased tire widths to reduce chance of getting "islands" when drill diameter is shrunk too much. 6) Sample size is 5.3mm, which corresponds to the BlueSkyBio Max NP tubes for 4.3mm implants. This thing was made with Tinkercad. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/6YPbJcK0tpK
