Description

A parametric chisel sheath OpenSCAD model. Comes with cute ears and eyes too!

I always keep my chisels in sheaths when I lay them on the workbench so that they stay protected if I bump something into them or accidentally drop them.

The sheaths have a tapered fit and sit snug on the chisel blade. Putting on and removing the sheaths is als very satisfying!

 

If you enjoy my work, please like to show your support!
 

I think PLA is fine as long as you don't plan on dropping your chisel, but you may as well use PETG or something stronger.
 

## Configuring for your chisel

 

The parameters and how to set them are documented in the comments. Use a pair of calipers to measure your chisel at the various dimensions listed in the parameter comments. Don't worry too much about accuracy, a 3D printed pair is just fine. The fudge room for this is very large. You can/should make the width bevel length longer (+2mm) and/or the thicknesses slightly smaller (-0.1mm) to ensure a good fit.
 

Be sure to dry your chisels before inserting to avoid rust. Applying oil to your tools is always a good idea! The eye holes can also help avoid moisture buildup.
