Video - 3D Printed Drill Press Dust Collection

[mdbuntyn]

I came across this video while looking for ideas to corral the chips/dust from my drill press. This appears to work better than any other solution that I've seen.

He has links to both his Etsy store and the 3D printer files in the video description.

Thanks for posting, Matt. I've been looking for something like that.

Looking at his Etsy page, he refined the design with a flange all the way around the bottom. A good improvement.

 

[Warped Woodwerks]

Very good design.

I did see 1 piece of shaving (4:20-4:21) come out when he used the forstner bit (he said, "no mess on my workspace"), but overall... very good design. And yes, I am teasing about the 1 shaving that flopped out.

He needs to mass produce those and retire, at least, that is what I'd do.

Happy 4th of July weekend... every one!

@Martin Roper Do you have a 3D printer? If so, he has the files on Thingiverse: Thingiverse - Digital Designs for Physical Objects

Matt, I don't. Even if I did I'm not computer savvy enough to use one. I just went ahead and ordered one.

 

[Berta]

I want one!

Cool, I've downloaded and will be printing one soon!

Daniel, (@tri4sale) does the download have "hold-down plate"?

Both styles are available

I downloaded the version with the hold down plate. Downside is my printer says it's a 12 hour print job!!!!

Daniel, just curious, what printer are you using? I'm planning to download the model today and print some. I'm using a Prusa i3 MK2.5S

 

[Michael Mathews]

Oh no, he removed the file with the hold down corners from Thingiverse! Did anyone download it before he removed it? Can you send it to me???

Anycubic Cheron, I wanted a big bed and this does 15.75 x 15.75 x 17.72 inch.

When I imported the model, I got a message that it was too big for my Prusa so it was automatically sized down to fit. I rotated it 90 degrees and was able to scale it back up a bit, but I have no way to tell what size the tube hole is anymore. I do know that the width of the piece is 149mm. My Slicer tells me just over 19 hours to print at 50% infill. I didn't start it today but will most likely wait until the weekend to do that.

GEEZ! 19 hours!

 

[tri4sale]

GEEZ! 19 hours!

3D printing is a very slow process unfortunately. My screen shows I started 5 hours and 22 minutes ago, and it says it 16% complete! My slicer estimated 12 hours but now I'm thinking closer to 30.

 

[tri4sale]

8 hours in, 44% completed, starting to look like something

 

[Martin Roper]

And here I thought waiting for glue to dry was slow...

 

[tri4sale]

Only took 15 hours to finish! Longest print I've done on my printer. Now have to use my Dremel to remove the supports needed during print, and then test it out.
