Heroquest Torture Rack Alternative Wheel Handle

prusaprinters

<p>I was always dissatisfied with the original handles on the Heroquest torture rack, since they would clearly hit the floor before making a full revolution. When browsing stuff to make with my new 3D printer, I came across Pipoden's excellent torture rack (www.thingiverse.com/thing:3657953).</p><p>I wanted to keep my original rack since I'd painted it when I was a kid, and I wanted the superior wheel handle. One wrinkle, though: Pipoden's redesign uses a round male peg, whereas the original handle has a female 3mm square peg attachment. The solution was simple: I imported the wheel into Blender, and cut out a 3mm square hole. Printed in PLA, and fit snugly on my original torture rack without any post-processing except a quick zap with a blowtorch to melt off some minor stringing.</p><p>The uncut Blender file is included in case you need to tweak any dimensions: just resize the cube, then click on the wheel and "apply" the modifier.</p><p>This is barely a remix, just a minor tweak. All of the design credit goes to Pipoden.</p><h3>Print Settings</h3><p><strong>Rafts: </strong>No</p><p><strong>Supports: </strong>No</p><p><strong>Resolution:</strong>200</p><p><strong>Infill: </strong>100</p><p><strong>Filament: </strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/s?url=search-alias&amp;field-keywords=Paramount3D+PLA&amp;tag=thingiverse09-20">Paramount3D PLA </a>Skin - Deep Complexion</p>
