    Now I want to buy some ball detents I may never use to add to the pile of cool things I might some day use.
    Seems really elegant with the use of existing materials where possible vs every thing looking like a 3d printer nail.

    • @RobertCowanDIY
      @RobertCowanDIY  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks! I try to incorporate parts that already exist, like you said. There's no need to design that spring feature as a 3d-printed part.

    • @nerddub
      @nerddub Місяць тому

      this is absolutely true, but it also super easy to add just a spring pocket and use whatever diameter spring / ball combo gives you the desired force or fits into your project constraints, same mating part, just detent pockets. once i figured this out, i have added ball detents to things that definitely didnt need them, but I needed them hahaha

    14:44 keep an idea on wear and tear on the tube. The ball is after all a "point" touch on the brush's tube, and it might wear down a groove (as one keeps naturally placing things in the same spot once they get used to it, it's a human thing we all do). My old, old German made vacuum machine for ashes had a clip on system very similar to this, and because the bend had to go in a recess, it eventually wore down the metal on the edge thin. Just a thought.

    • @RobertCowanDIY
      @RobertCowanDIY  Місяць тому

      I doubt this will get used enough for it to be an issue. ASA is pretty tough stuff too. BUT, these ball springs are actually just a ball bearing, so the wear should be somewhat minimal. We'll see how it goes, I could always print the 'cup' out of a different material, or even something with carbon fiber which would actually wear down the ball instead (which is easier to replace).

    I would suggest you to put a bit of grease between moving parts to increase it's lifetime (and lower the noise) and thread locking glue in the nuts.

  • @BobGarrett66
    @BobGarrett66 Місяць тому

    I may be getting really old. Hell, I am old. I’ve been a woodworker for almost 4 decades now. Never heard those called “ball detents”. I do have a gallon jug full of “bullet catches” that I have used in building numerous cabinets where they are used with a small strike plate. When you install them into a cabinet door, they CATCH in the strike plate to hold the door closed. Some folks use magnetic catches for a similar solution. Bullet catches (now called ball detents) are a more elegant solution. Either way, great use for them to be used for your hose storage. Thanks for sharing. Oh, and an idea for holding the hose together so you can access your dust collection control…… bungee cord.
    Edited: For grammar

    • @RobertCowanDIY
      @RobertCowanDIY  Місяць тому

      I just used 0.2mm, and 0.5mm for the clearance between the part bodies. I just modeled up the ball spring thing and gave everything 0.2mm clearance. It worked great.

  • @MumrikDK
    @MumrikDK Місяць тому

    That a tempting mechanic to use for something, but I really do wonder about the steel on plastic wear from the ball. I fear it'll make the locking positions really weak over time.

    • @RobertCowanDIY
      @RobertCowanDIY  Місяць тому

      ASA is pretty strong. I did think about that, but at the resting position, the ball is not really under tension, so it's happy to live there forever. It only sees some wear when you spin the tab. That doesn't happen very often, maybe a few times a week? I'll let you know if it fails, but the ball also spins, so the friction should be pretty minimal.

    When designing parts for ASA, do you do anything to compensate for shrinkage?

    • @RobertCowanDIY
      @RobertCowanDIY  Місяць тому +1

      I didn't notice any issues, everything was spot on. The main mechanism was PLA and ASA, and I did nothing to compensate. Everything was printed on a Bambu X1C.
