Craftsman table saw handle
Description
This Is A Replacement Handle I Designed For My Craftsman Table Saw. My Old One Broke And I Couldn'T Get It Glued Back Together! Similar Parts Sell For Somewhere Between 15-35 Bucks Online. Also Will Work With An Ace Branded 10" Table Saw. Scale Note: I'M A Newb And Created This With The Scale Set To 1=1Cm Instead Of 1=1Mm, So You May Need To Scale Up The Print 1000% In Your Slicer. (It'S What I Did.) Printed With 50% Infill, Prusa I3 Mk3, Pla, Make Sure To Ask Slicer To Print Support Material! The Bottom Looks A Little Gnarly Since It Is Trying To Print A Horizontal Suspended Surface, But It Sort Of Adds To The Rustic Charm. I Reused The Threaded Knob From The Original Handle, I Believe The Nut Is 7/16" Coarse Thread. (17.2Mm Width, 9.45Mm Depth) ... It Fit Like A Glove. I'M Pretty Impressed With Myself. V1.5 Includes... - I Made The Flat Face On The Front Of The Wheel Less Pronounced - I Increased The Amount Of Chamfer On The Bolt Hole - Thicker Spokes - I Needed More Clearance Between The Wheel And The Front Of The Table Saw, So I Moved The Wheel Another 4-6Mm "Forward" - I Made The Barrel/Base Of The Handle 4-6Mm Thinner, So That The Springloaded Mounting Shaft Would Reach All The Way Through The Part. (Oops.) - I Moved The Wheel Forward Yet Another 6Mm To Give Enough Clearance For A Screw Lock That Is Located Behind The Wheel. This Also Increases The Angle Of The Spokes So They Print Cleaner And Look Less Gnarly. - I Made The Resting Place For The T-Pin A Little Bit Skinnier To Ensure There Was Less Play In The Handle - I Added Gear Teeth To The Back End Of The Handle, Which Can Be Used To Adjust The Angle Of The Table Saw (When The Aforementioned Screw Lock Is Loosened) - I Added Some Distance To The Front Of The Base So That The Washer And Nut On The Front Of The Handle Tightened More Securely V2.1 Includes - Gear Teeth! This Turns The Angle Of The Saw Blade When You Push In And Turn. - Curved Spokes Like The Original Part! Now It Actually Fits Properly On The Table Saw And Has Clearance Over The Release Screw That Sits Behind The Wheel. Sort Of A Wonky Design. Tweaks I May Make In The Future: - I Should Cut In Some "Up / Down" Text Into The Front Of The Wheel Like The Original - I'M Not Sure If There'S A Good Way To Make The Front Of The Handle More Aesthetically Pleasing Other Than Making It A Flat-Front Print. I'Ll Noodle On That. I Also Don'T Want To Use Multiple Parts For Structural Integrity Reasons. Comments Welcome, If You Print One, Show Me How It Turns Out!
