Ratcheting Hose Clamp

thingiverse

I've always thought these clamps are neat, and I'm working on a version that's fully customizable too. The design can be a bit tricky because the circles are all unfolded when in the neutral position. Feel free to try out my scan if you're interested - it works with tubing of about 3/4 to 5/8 inches. Instructions This scan was done and then vectorized. You'll need to optionally scale this SVG and extrude it until it's approximately a quarter inch thick. To use the clamp, insert it over some tubing and close the jaws together using pliers. To open the jaws again, simply slide them to one side.
