Wood Pellet Products - Big Timber Patio Heater Key Clip

thingiverse

If you have a [Wood Pellet Products Big Timber Patio Heater](https://woodpelletproducts.com/product/big-timber-wood-pellet-patio-heater/) you may have experienced the "key" which is the shutoff for the pellets falling out (it only stays in based on friction from the pellets, but it sometimes still falls out). So I built a clip to keep the key in place assuring the shutoff of the heater. In my case I printed it in SLA via a tough resin (formlabs tough 1500) and use VHB tape to attach it, but the model has a hole in case you want to use a self-tapping sheet-metal screw (I didn't want to put that up into the pellet chute. The tough resin (sort of like nylon or PC blend) flexes nicely and so to release just push the little tab on the end of the clip and it fits nicely in when you slide the key into place. As always I am including the STEP in addition to the 3MF and STL so you can alter it as you need too.
