Height Scribe
Print Profile(3)
Description
This 3D-printed height scribe is a versatile tool for the workshop and creative applications.
It is ideal for precisely transferring height measurements to workpieces – used by us for working with clay, but also suitable for wood and metal processing. Perfect for scribing uniform lines and heights on rotating or stationary objects.
The construction is based on a central threaded rod with two grippy knurled nuts, enabling precise and quick height adjustment. The scribing pin is securely fixed with an M3 screw. For this purpose, a bore for an M3 heat-set insert is provided on the side of the printed part, ensuring durable and stable clamping.
Features:
- Total height: approx. 245 mm
- Minimum adjustable scribing height: approx. 20 mm
- Stepless height adjustment via thread
- Knurled nuts for easy and secure operation
- Stable base for secure hold during work
- Receptacle for scribing pins up to 10 mm grip diameter
- Pin fixation via M3 screw with heat-set insert
Application:
Simply set the desired height, fix the scribing pin, and guide the workpiece along. Particularly practical for pottery, to create clean, uniform lines on vessels or on the potter's wheel.
Printing Notes:
For optimal stability, it is recommended to print the parts with sufficient infill (e.g., ≥20%) and multiple perimeters. A low layer thickness makes sense so that the thread is cleanly formed. A robust material like PETG or ABS is ideal. An M3 heat-set insert is required for clamping.
