Hole center attachment for calipers

thingiverse

UPDATE: V2 and V2 Long Reach have been added, V1 is pictured in the images. V2 is a narrower by 4mm OD and more pointy V2 Long is even more pointy to extend the reach of your caliper blades. *Note these must be printed in pairs to use them properly. This is a slide-on attachment for hole center measuring for a digital caliper. I designed it for my tacklife (a clone of an actual good caliper) but it'll probably fit most. Check that your blades are 4mm thick and have a 45 deg taper at the end (just eye ball it). It is designed to fit on the OD side of the calipers. Suited to measure distances as small as 21mm. These fit caliper blades that are 4mm thick and have a slight taper to hold them in place. I've also included a lanyard hole to fit a piece of wire, elastic band or string into. If they slip off the blades just loop string over the top of the caliper. I printed with 0.12mm height and 80% infill, no supports and it does the job just fine. I'd love to see what your makes and get some feedback. Also checkout my page for more gadgets and designs.
