Handle for freezing compartment in a refrigerator

# Handle for freezing compartment in a refrigerator A simple customizable handle for a Comfee HS-147RN and probably similar models. I think this fridge was produced by Bosch since I saw very similar handles in other Bosch models. Written in openscad. The size is 101x53x14 mm. It should be easy to adjust to other sizes. ## Warning There might be combinations of parameters that do not fit together. Your are responsible to check the sizes for your needs. # Printing I printed with PLA with 6 lines for walls, 60% infill. No support enabled. After the print you must remove the two very small "supports" so you can insert the lock into the holes (see picture RemoveSupport.jpg). It is a bit of fumble to mount the handle with lock back to the door. I think the handle/lock design is poor. Sooner or later this part will break off. Perhaps this is the plan of the manufacturer? # Source files - Griff.scad The handle creator. - Griff.json Defines sizes and models for flavours. - svn_rev.scad Contains the subversion revision and is automatically created by the Makefile and SubWCRev (subwcrev). The revision string gets printed on the inside of the handle. - Makefile The control file for make (I use gmake on Linux, others not tested). # Rebuild Unzip the dfLibscad_xx.zip (xx==Revision. It is a .txt file on Thingiverse since it does not accept .zip) into the same directory that contains the scad and Makefile. You should get a new subdir named dfLibscad. On Linux open a shell in the source directory, then type make and wait. The png and stl files will get created in subdirs. This takes a while, so be patient. On Windows, Mac, your are on your own. A manual rebuild with openscad is also possible, open Griff.scad in openscad, chnage to your sizes, press F6, wait, then F7 to export the stl. To much work for me, therefore I created the Makefile. I do currently not know whether the customize of Thingiverse will work. # Details on the Makefile It parses the json file to get the list of things/flavours to build. Then it creates pictures in PNG directory and the stl in STL directory. It also checks for an auto-versioning template file (svn_rev.tmpl). If found, calls SubWCRev (see pysubwcrev below) to create svn_rev.scad. I do not provide the template file (not useful for you), so this rule will not execute on your machine (I provide the svn_rev.scad instead). You might also notice that it checks for my library dfLibscad. If found, the libraries svn_rev.tmpl file gets translated into another svn_rev.scad file with a version string of the library. Designs can use the module WriteRevision() to print the revision strings onto the part. I use this Makefile in other projects as well. Usually, just the very few first lines need to be adjusted. Feel free to reuse it. ## Requirements - The Makefile expects openscad-nighly to be installed. I use it because it is faster. For openscad stable, locate the two lines with "OPENSCAD ?=" and comment/uncomment the version you want. >"OPENSCAD ?= openscad-nightly --enable=fast-csg --enable=fast-csg-trust-corefinement --enable=lazy-union" >"# OPENSCAD ?= openscad" - On Linux, grep is installed by default, for poor OS you can use either cygwin or the WSL (untested). # Github My github projects: https://github.com/FauthD?tab=repositories - pysubwcrev is a cross-platform version of subwcrev
