Description

Compact bow sander designed for controlled sanding of small parts and curved surfaces. The bow-style frame allows adjustable tension on the sanding strip, making it well-suited for fine detail work and shaping in tight areas.

The design is optimized for easy 3D printing with a simple, functional layout.

 

Sanding Strip Guidance:

  • Width: 13 mm
  • Cut length: 225 mm (use included cutting template model)
  • Grit: User preference based on application

Print Settings (Recommended):

  • Material: PLA
  • Walls: 4
  • Top/Bottom Shell Thickness: 1.0 mm
  • Infill: 15% (Gyroid)
  • Supports: Not required
  • Orientation: Print as shown

Additional Print Notes:

  • Bow nut and T-screw: Print at 0.08 mm layer height for best thread detail
  • T-screw: Print laying flat for improved strength
  • Other parts may be printed at standard layer heights
