Shaper Origin Vacuum Hose Strain Relief

thingiverse

This was designed to help relieve strain placed on the vacuum hose of the Shaper Origin when pulling off/putting on. Mine broke at the interface so I came up with this. The original design is 3 STLs. The base is the part that connects to the vacuum port of the Shaper Origin. It is printed in ABS, The o-ring is printed in TPU and is inside the ABS part and helps grip the vacuum port. The large curved piece is also TPU and flexes with the vacuum hose. All three of these parts were printed in place together with a dual extrusion machine that had ABS in one nozzle and TPU in the other. I created a second version where all three parts are joined as one.
