Maverick / ThermoWorks Probe Spool

thingiverse

Wanted a spool for my HeaterMeter probes that could stack on itself to keep all my probes together. This design consists of one base part which is printed once per probe, and an end cap which completes the final chamber. The base parts are symmetrical so they can be rotated 180 degrees or have the probes stack up on each other. Stacking up on each other allows them to trap the probe wire preventing it from unraveling completely. Tested with: Maverick ET-72/73 and ET-723 Thermoworks ProSeries The Maverick fit a bit tight while the Thermoworks were a bit loose. In the OpenSCAD file, build plates are defined for printing 1-4 probes at once. Printed versions are available in the HeaterMeter store. Updates: 2017-Jul-18: Fixed slight effective diameter mismatch between hub round and flat parts causing bump in printed output. 2017-Apr-16: Added gap between layers by removing a bit of the probe holster, configurable with probe_cut Removed dependency on OpenSCAD 2016+, no longer uses rotate_extrude(angle) Print Settings Printer: C-Bot Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.24mm layer height Infill: 15% Notes: Print tested in ABS and PLA, should work with smaller layer heights but test printed at 0.24mm.
