Kitchen Towel Holder

prusaprinters

<p>My refrigerator doesn’t have anywhere to hang a hand towel so when I started learning to use Fusion360 this seamed like a good thing to start with.</p><p>Other materials you will need:</p><ul><li>A ¼ inch [6mm] dowel, 8 and 1/8inches [205mm] long.</li><li>4x M3x.5, 16mm long pan head or socked head screws. (these are optional, see assembly for more details)</li><li>8x ¼ inch [6mm], 1/8 inch [3mm] disk Magnets (also optional, there sizes of two sided tape can also be used)</li></ul><h5>Note:</h5><ul><li>Print two copies of each part.</li><li>These parts have a nominal interlocking clearance of .10mm. This fit is intentionally a little tight. Due to this it is necessary for your printer to be properly calibrated for dimensional accuracy.</li></ul><h5>Assembly</h5><p>Start by gluing the two haves of base part1 together (the surface detail is designed to hide the seam line). Next glue the two arm ends on the wooden dowel, make sure the nubs are facing outward and are lined up with each other. Use a M3x.5 tap to thread the 4 holes on the ends of the base (if you don’t have a tap and machine screws you can just glue part2 into the notches in part1. But make sure you install the arm first). Lastly attach magnets to the back.</p><h5>Optional steps</h5><p>As this is being used in the kitchen and will inevitably get wet, sealing the wood and plastic will help to prevent it from absorbing water and growing mold. I coated mine in XTC-3D before final assembly, lightly sanded it, painted it with white, and a protective layer of high gloss enamel.&nbsp;</p>
