Desktop Dustpan & Brush

A desktop dustpan and brush, designed mainly for scooping out the odd bits of filament in enclosed printers like the X1C.  

Note model requires TPU - I used eSUN TPU-95a.

Magnets required are 8mm x 2.75mm or 8mm x 3mm, measure beforehand so you print the right models.  6mm magents are not strong enough, buy some 8mm ones :)

Print settings

Print the Dust pan in PLA @ 0.20 with support as below, support are just for the magnet holes:

Print the Handle in PLA @ 0.20 with NO SUPPORTS but with a brim:

Print the TPU Brush End.stl in TPU as the model imports @ 0.16.  No supports.  Have faith.  PEI sheet works well here as TPU stick very well.

Installation:

• Pop the supports out of the Dustpan and insert magnets into the 2 holes.  Glue if needed.
• Insert magnets into the Brush Handle, Glue if needed.
• Add a magnet to the Dustpan where the Brush joins, making sure the polarity is correct :)
• Insert the TPU “bristles” into the Brush Handle, add a blob of super glue mid way if you need a tighter fitting.
• Attach to side of printer when not in use.
• Rejoice while cleaning the bottom of your 3d printer :D

All my models are free to download and remix as you see fit, however if you would like to support me please take a look at my Printables Club where all my Fusion360 design files are available to Club members.
