Description

A SAB chisel handle & holder based on the model by side5, redesigned for FDM printability without supports. Great for ergonomic panel line scribing on Gunpla model kits! Features include:

  • Collet-style grip
  • Knurled tip
  • End cap
  • Optional 4mm magnet slot (I personally don't use this, but the option is here if you like the extra secure hold)
  • Engraved text

Print Instructions

Shaft (plate 1)

  • Orientation: Standing up on the base.
  • Layer height: The threads need to be printed at 0.1mm. In the included print profile, the shaft is printed at 0.2mm with a layer height modifier at 80mm-88mm to print at the higher 0.1mm resolution.
  • Supports: None. Brim optional if you're worried about adhesion, since this is a tall and skinny model.
  • Text is added in the slicer. You can adjust the text in Bambu Studio by double-clicking the text, or by using the other print profile with pre-positioned text for all SAB chisel sizes.

Collar (plate 2)

  • Orientation: Standing up on the tip.
  • Layer height: The whole thing should be printed at 0.1mm for the inner threads and the knurling.
  • Supports: None. Brim optional if you're worried about adhesion, since this is a tall and skinny model.
  • If you are having issues with clearance, then adjust the X-Y hole compensation. If the model is too tight, increase the hole compensation. If the model is too loose, decrease the hole compensation. You'll need to adjust the X-Y contour compensation by the opposite amount, since the walls on this model are quite thin and won't slice properly if the hole compensation is too big.

Peg (plate 3)

  • This piece is optional if you want to seal the hole the magnets go into. About 3 magnets 4mm in diameter should fit.
  • Orientation: Standing up on the base.
  • Layer height: 0.2mm.
  • Supports: None. Brim optional if you're worried about adhesion, since this is a tall and skinny model.

Cap (plate 4)

  • Orientation: Standing up on the tip.
  • Layer height: 0.2mm.
  • Supports: None. Brim optional if you're worried about adhesion, since this is a tall and skinny model.
