From what I see online, this attachment may be compatible with other Hitachi clippers as well. My clipper measures 45mm in width.
These files contain 3 objects:
- Bare attachment, to test out the mating clearance with your actual clipper. The STEP file can be edited to change clearance of:
- - Distance between protruding cylindrical snapping points and the base on the sketch
- - Extrusion distance of said snapping points
- - Comb height to compensate shrinking and curling during printing and any manual filing afterwards
- - Extrusion distance of how wide the base is
- 3mm/6mm attachment.
- 9mm/12mm attachment.
I sketched this up because I was missing the 3mm/6mm clipper as it broke years ago. So I modeled them from the 9mm/12mm attachment I actually have. So the 3mm/6mm attachment may not be accurate, but should be effective nevertheless.
I've printed the 3mm/6mm attachment on an Anycubic i3 Mega S, with the 3mm face flat on the print bed. The 6mm face suffers a bit of shrinkage (curling upwards during printing), resulted in more of a 5.1-5.5mm comb instead.
My Cura settings:
- Profile high
- Brim adhesion
- Infill doesn't matter as it's quite thin so Cura fills it completely
- Tree support
Print suggestion:
- Slap on enough blue tape on the bed to improve adhesion and prevent curling.
