Split Ring

prusaprinters

<h4><br><strong>2 shapes and 6 sizes each.</strong></h4><p>A removable ring that is harder to use than carabiners. But I wanted a sturdy one with a simple shape, so I designed this.<br>&nbsp;</p><h4>2 types of data are available for each ring.</h4><p><strong>[Easy-to-Print]</strong> ─ Larger tolerance. The end of the ring-line <strong>comes off easily</strong>.<br><strong>[Hard-to-Print]</strong> ─ Smaller tolerance. The end of the ring-line <strong>can be held in place</strong>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h3><strong>Print Instructions</strong></h3><p>If the printed ring sticks together and does not open, try scaling up an Easy-to-Print model in a slicer. (e.g. 120% or more)<br>This will increase the clearance between the inner and outer rings and make it even easier to print.</p><p>Brims/Rafts ─ Doesn't Matter<br>Supports ─ No<br>Filament material ─ ABS (or high toughness one)</p><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>How to Use</h3><p><strong>Open ─</strong><br>This split ring does not open horizontally. To open it, shift the end of the outer ring-line vertically.</p><p><strong>Close ─</strong><br>There are notches on both ends of the ring-line to hold them in place. Therefore, the inner end needs to be fitted first to close the ring. The outer end should be fitted last.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/119654/rich_content/4c52eab1-e657-4554-99d7-8445dab4b521/splitring_open_1200.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22ed310e6d-5f11-4309-9d8d-5812b42f4748%22%2C%22w%22%3A1200%2C%22h%22%3A900%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><h3>Sizes</h3><p><strong>Shape No.* ─ external dimension (and width of ring-line)</strong></p><p>Circle No.3 ─ DIA14.1 x T2.4 mm (3 mm) ─ similar in size to a fingernail<br>Circle No.4 ─ DIA18.8 x T3.2 mm (4 mm)<br>Circle No.5 ─ DIA23.5 x T4.0 mm (5 mm)<br>Circle No.6 ─ DIA28.2 x T4.8 mm (6 mm) ─ similar in size to a plastic bottle cap<br>Circle No.7 ─ DIA32.9 x T5.6 mm (7 mm)<br>Circle No.8 ─ DIA37.6 x T6.4 mm (8 mm)</p><p>Oval No.3 ─ W19.5 x H14.1 x T2.4 mm (3 mm) ─ similar in size to a fingernail<br>Oval No.4 ─ W26.0 x H18.8 x T3.2 mm (4 mm)<br>Oval No.5 ─ W32.5 x H23.5 x T4.0 mm (5 mm) ─ similar in size to an SD card<br>Oval No.6 ─ W39.0 x H28.2 x T4.8 mm (6 mm)<br>Oval No.7 ─ W45.5 x H32.9 x T5.6 mm (7 mm)<br>Oval No.8 ─ W52.0 x H37.6 x T6.4 mm (8 mm)</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/119654/rich_content/4d670315-a2ad-4535-9930-a32011c6524e/splitring_table_1200.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%226e976712-78b7-432f-991d-dfad4b36c087%22%2C%22w%22%3A1200%2C%22h%22%3A900%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p>
