Thread Tap Handle Dormer M25

thingiverse

I am creating a basic tap holder thread for one of my larger taps, specifically designed for aluminum, plastic, and thinner steels. This handy tool allows for quick and dirty jobs, but its limitations on ABS are a concern - my gut tells me it would break under tougher tasks. The idea behind this design is that it fits perfectly with the Dormer E513M12X1.5NO2 tap, just like the case the tool comes in. For customization purposes, feel free to change the code to suit your specific tap. Here's what you need to know about printing settings: Printer Brand: RepRap Printer Model: Delta Marlin Rafts: Yes Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: 0.2 - 0.4 mm Infill: 100% Notes: Printing at 100% infill takes a significant amount of time, so consider printing partial runs to verify the dimensions and account for material shrinkage. To ensure accuracy, you will need to scale the model to factor in your specific material's shrinkage rate. For my black ABS filament, I found that scaling by 1.04 provided an ideal result; however, some sources suggest a possible 8% shrinkage rate. http://www.dormerpramet.com/en-gb/products/product-details?psf=E513&psfid=DORE513 Rounded Cube code function: You can find this and more useful designs at: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:9347
