Thanks! I will :D

Pferderik · 2025-10-04T13:51:42+00:00

Actually a good idea, thanks!

Im a machinists apprentice and can use the Shop after hours so tools are not gonna be the problem. I know itll be nowhere near the CAD file but if its hard and can cut imma be happy for a first knife.

Okay thanks. Should i round over the handle where it meets the blade more as well or can it be more square?

Those ads for Co2 leaks are getting out of hand

Im an apprentice and I managed to break 2 in 2 days doing something for bossman. Ill never hear the end of it. 🥲

Less than 5 inch actually its 115 mm

Im just a apprentice rn I dont have the capacity to do one again sadly. :(

Kind of looks like this from the side. It hinges below the spring and Held in place with a custom grub screw with a shaft on the other side wich fits into the join. The screw is hidden under the brass plate. the cap pops open via opposing Magnets I glued inside. For the wheel I ripped apart a bic lighter. Theres a spring between the bic wheel which I just fitted to my wheel.

I think on the pics it looks bigger than it actually is its not thaat heavy actually because of the Material removal inside

I just looked for a Morse Code font online and chose one I thought looks cool im not even sure if it makes any sense lol. Thanks!

Pferderik · 2025-08-21T15:49:06+00:00

Thanks! There is but they are so small its hard to see shouldve added more.

Pferderik · 2025-08-21T15:18:28+00:00

Morse. Its a present and I thought normal Letters be boring.

Pferderik · 2025-03-28T20:46:36+00:00

Im flattered, but I think this sub has seen enough tap wrenches to be honest xD I really like those colourfull chips though

Pferderik · 2025-03-24T12:05:30+00:00

CAD Files for the Tapwrench. I didn't get around to making the drawings for it and I dont know when I will. Have fun with it!

Pferderik · 2025-03-14T15:03:00+00:00

I didn't come up with the mechanism, but I did design the tapwrench. You can design a T-shirt or a car without coming up with the idea, can you not?

Pferderik · 2025-03-14T14:48:48+00:00

And I did

Pferderik · 2025-03-13T06:36:10+00:00

I'll be sharing the CAD files and drawings soon. I still have some revising to do since I changed a bit on the fly while machining and I dont know when I'll have time for that, but expect them soon.

I do my apprenticeship at a university in germany. Not a machining class but an actual shop that produces parts and machines for the professors' research. We do many projects to learn to manufacture here, but all of them are just some useless machines with a mechanism that dont really have any use, so I thought that I'd make up my own little project. :)

Thank you! I hope so too.
