Jigsaw blade holder for Sortimo L-BOXX

thingiverse

Could not find a good holder for all the used (not to be thrown away yet) spare blades to my 18V Bosch jigsaw (GST 18 V-LI S), so I spent waay too much time developing this mount. This is a jigsaw blade holder that fits snugly in the top lid of your Sortimo (Bosch) toolbox. It holds 15 blades fixed in position by a locking slide bar, that can be unlocked by pressing any of the two ambidextrous release buttons. This is done both for inserting and extracting blades from the holder, but since the holder is vertical when this is done, all other blades stay in place. The holder is made to fits all T-shank jigsaw blades between 1-2 mm in thickness and any at length. The model is made to be extra easy to print, requiring no supports and no post processing, but a smaller nozzle (0.4 mm) is advised. The sliding bar is tensioned by two springs, sized T0.6xW6xL15 mm. To mount the holder in the toolbox lid, heat some M4 screw up and thread them into the mounting holes. Source code (.stp & .3dm) is also provided, should you want to modify the design for your own purpose.
