Description

So… you finally remembered it's time to clean your lead screws, but you can't find that cleaner you printed the day you unboxed your printer… FEAR NOT! In less time than it take for you to listen to half the Spice Girls debut album, you can have a lead screw cleaner that's even better than the one you had before!

Designed to be SUPER minimalist, this cleaner is setup for T8x2 4ST ACME screw (yes, the same one you have in your printer. yes, that printer).

It's sized just a hair larger than the screw so you can tuck a small wipe or towel in there to get all that gunk off

Once you're loaded up with the wipe, snap (yes, snap) the cleaner all the way onto the screw and then you'll have full 360 degree rotation all the way up and down.

Tolerance isn't so tight that it's a pain to get off when you're done. Just kind of “peel” it off the screw from the top and it'll pop right off.

Print as oriented. 0.2 layer height gives you plenty of resolution.

You'll have squeaky clean lead screws before you know it! (just don't forget to reapply your lubricant of choice)

I actually love the design! But I guess it could actually be more complete if it had a little handle. Just a simple little straight rod would do just fine, just to be able to reach the back rod of a X1/P1S more easily. An unscrew able rod would probably be even beter

This Lead Screw Cleaner prints well using the designer profile (I used grey PETG), & it works well too. It's a bit tricky to remove it from the rear lead screw on the X1C, where finger access is limited, without dropping it, but that's just finding out how to do it. Overall, excellent model.
