Hockey Stickhandling Trainer (Remixed)

thingiverse

Thanks to Buckaroo8 for designing the stands and bolt (included). I designed the bars that connect the stands. For a typical setup, you would need the following: Print: - 4 stands (short or tall, but all the same height) --> I print these with 45% infill using gyroid or cubic pattern, no supports. This is for strength. You can print them at 30%, but they are a lot lighter and can break easier. I used 6-8 walls, 10 top/bottom layers for added thickness. You can print these at an angle with the settings I use on the bolts, but it isn't necessary for the strength of these. Infill: 45% Infill pattern: Gyroid or cubic Supports: No (unless angled by 7 degrees) Rafts: No (unless angled by 7 degrees) Walls: 6-8 Bottom/top layers: 10 - 6 bars (note the picture of Cura for resizing) --> I use 40-45% infill for strength, otherwise, you can use 30-35%. Again, I use 6-8 walls and extra bottom/top layers for thickness. I included a scad file if you need to edit it. In your slicer, you MUST rotate it and resize it according to the screenshot for the m6 nut and printed bolt to fit. Sorry, I was too lazy to redesign it with the correct sizing. It was one of my first projects using OpenSCAD and I was just learning the ropes. You may have to file the opening for the nut a little bit and then loctite it in. I recommend filing more towards the tip, get the nut to fit in both sides, screw in the screw and make sure it all goes together smoothly and THEN loctite the nuts. :) Infill: 45% Infill pattern: Gyroid or cubic Walls: 6-7 Bottom/top layers: 8 - 6 bolts (IMPORTANT: if you are going to put stress on any part of this system, print these at an angle with these settings) --> Settings: Infill: 75% Infill pattern: Gyroid or cubic Angle: 7 degrees Raft: Yes Supports: Touching baseplate only, 10% infill The reason I print the bolts like this is if you print them flat with 30-35% infill, you can screw them into the stand and then just rip the top off with your hands with some torque. Printing at an angle with significant infill makes these solid. I will be using resistance bands around the stands so this system can double as a rebounder as well. The resistance bands/bungee cords put a ton of stress on the bolts and broke them on my first set. Buy: - M6 nuts (1 for each bar) - M6-1.00 x 10 or 12mm hex cap screws (you choose the head type, 1 for every 2 bars) - Loctite or other strong glue
