Vaccum Nozzles (Desk-Cleaner and extra long Tube)

Yet another set of vacuum nozzles for 35mm adapters (most common in Europe) as I couldn't find suitable models on Thingiverse.

Number one is a "Desk Cleaner", i.e. it was designed to remove dust from areas where a normal vacuum nozzle is way to dangerous and may "swallow" unwanted parts lying on a cluttered desk, workbench or similar.

The other two are just long nozzles to get into niches, etc. The extra long version has a tube of 30cm and for those who don't have a printer that can print that height, there is another version with only 20cm tube.

Both types of adapters come with an optional head cap, recommended to be printed in TPU or any other soft material. They serve two purposes: first of all the soft material doesn't produce scratches on delicate surfaces. And second they avoid that especially the long nozzles suck themselves to a surface sheet of paper, etc. The TPU head for the long nozzles is designed like a "crown", making sure that there is always some hole for air to get in. Similar effect is achieved for the desk cleaner by some little nipples. (in the latest version the desk cleaner itself has small nipples already). And a third benefit: If the little crown gets worn over time, just replace the crown, don't print the compete nozzle again.

The TPU caps have very thin bases and need some support to be printed properly. Therefore I added models that have support and little adhesion pads already built in, to minimize wasted material. This support can be peeled off easily after print. The plain version without support are also included, but not really recommended to print as is.

Update 2023-03-25: The TPU caps were actually meant to be easily removable. But in case you think the desk-cleaner cap falls off by itself (e.g. when scratching on the carpet), I uploaded an alternative version 2, which sticks better, but is also harder to mount.

Update 2025-04-08: Uploaded a longer version of the desk cleaner as requested (DeskCleaner-long) and a long thin version (DeskCleanerLongThin) - this is still work in progress

Update 2025-05-28: Added a 20cm extension for the long nozzle on request. I haven't printed it yet and can't tell if it holds tight (which also depends on the accuracy of your printer). The tolerance is 0.16mm. @NeedToFixit: give it a try and let me know if it fits your needs.
