3D model description

Digital files to 3D print. These are pairs of DIY Axle and Loadable Dumbbells collars and endcaps to make your own fitness equipment. These are designed for 1.5" nominal schedule 40 pipe. They use 1/4"-20 heated inserts and the same with hex socket set screws. I can give you a link to the ones I use if you message me. You can drill and run the screws in to the holes if you prefer or just glue them on like I did in the video I will post below. The Axle I have had 400LB on fine, and dumbbells I tested to 150LB for circus presses and its held up fine. These are 3D printed in HIPS plastic, so it is high impact and temperature resistant. The end caps are now flat so they are stronger as well. Included in this are the files for the collar and the semi sphere and flat end caps. I have Included my FreeCad files as well so you can make adjustments to this design if need be

Use ABS or HIPS preferably HIPS as its way higher impact resistant. https://youtu.be/yl0I_tugrQw
