Starfish Helping Hands

prusaprinters

<p>Whenever I need to do some soldering, I have Patrick Starfish helping me out. The adjustable hose I picked up seems to have a narrower fitting than most, so I made my own version of a base. The pipe fitting just slips in place, but a short number 6 wood screw and glue hold it permanently. I stole the magnet idea from Fogl on thingiverse.</p> <p>To secure the clips, I pushed them into the blue line joints, then drilled and screwed sideways with a 1/2" number 4 screw. They were pretty secure before the screw.</p> <p>Coolant Line: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K7MGQRJ/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_yB-3FbQVQ5WGZ?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K7MGQRJ/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_yB-3FbQVQ5WGZ?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1</a></p> <p>Clips: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072FJQ7BG/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_wB-3FbV7RC1C8?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072FJQ7BG/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_wB-3FbV7RC1C8?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1</a></p> <p>Magnet: <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Magnet-25-lb-Round-Base-Pull-Magnets-96324/203613132">https://www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Magnet-25-lb-Round-Base-Pull-Magnets-96324/203613132</a></p> <p>Check out more on my blog post:<br/> <a href="https://kiltedcraftworks.com/2020/12/21/soldering-helping-hands/(opens">https://kiltedcraftworks.com/2020/12/21/soldering-helping-hands/(opens</a> in a new tab)</p>
