Resistor lead forming tool

prusaprinters

<p>There are three mix-and-match styles to the supplied STL files: metric vs. imperial, narrow vs. wide, and long vs. short. The significance of these three styles are,</p><p><strong>metric</strong>: lead spacings in increments of 2 millimeters<br><strong>imperial</strong>: lead spacings in increments of 0.05 inches</p><p><strong>narrow</strong>: for small resistors whose bodies are no longer than 6.75 mm (0.25 inches)<br><strong>wide</strong>: for medium resistors whose bodies are no longer than 10.50 mm (0.40 inches)</p><p><strong>long</strong>: a long tool with lead spacings up to 40 mm (1.5 inches)<br><strong>short</strong>: a shorter tool with lead spacings up to 30 mm (1.0 inch)</p><p>The two OpenSCAD source files are nearly identical with the only difference being that one has settings for metric units whilst the other imperial. As the files are fully parameterized: it is easy to change the increments, dimensions, spacings, widths, etc. of the tools by editing the OpenSCAD files and then re-rendering the tools.</p><p>Creator:dnewman</p><p>https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:26025</p>
