Vacuum handheld

thingiverse

This is a compact handheld vacuum that operates based on the venturi principle, utilizing my compressor air as its power source. It simply requires an old sock as the bag, secured with a string or rubber band. All of the parts print upright, with support needed only for the main vacuum component from the bed. To avoid complications, do not print the vacuum part with support on the inside of the hole. This could make it difficult to clear out any resulting debris. The hole within the vacuum needs to be slightly enlarged from the inside. A drill measuring about 0.075 inches is an effective starting point; if suction remains too low, further enlargement may be necessary. Alternatively, a soldering iron tip can be used, allowing for controlled heating and size adjustment. Be cautious when using this device without the bag in place, as I experienced firsthand when I turned it on without one - the resulting filings nearly got stuck in my face. If you prefer not to print the tip, the vacuum will fit a 1/2 inch PVC pipe instead. Enjoy my Sock Sucker design. Cheers, Kisssys
