Scottish Tension Spinning Wheel Bobbin
thingiverse
Someone made a request if I could design and print a bobbin for her Scottish tension spinning wheel. I am releasing it on here so that other people who might need this model can use it. Don't have a printer yourself? Contact me on my Etsy store and I'll be happy to print it for you: https://www.etsy.com/shop/XDr4g0nX3DPrinting. Print Settings: Printer Brand: RepRap Printer: GEEETech i3 Pro B Metal Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: .4mm layer height Infill: 15% Notes: I used a .5mm nozzle for a quick print. Both sides of the bobbin can be printed flat without rafts or support, I printed the spindle upright with support on the bottom. Post-Printing: Assembly: After printing the sides and the spindle of the bobbin should fit snugly, if they do not, sand it a bit and try again. For a good fix, I used CA glue (CyanoAcrylate). How I Designed This: I took measurements from an existing bobbin and redesigned the parts in Sketchup with a requested lotus pattern.
