A tool to hold microfiber towel to clean build plates with ease.

Print in PLA

Filament used in photo:

Bambu PLA Metal

Updates

March 23, 2024

Added an alternative knob for thin cloth or sandpaper.
Original is designed to bottom out to prevent vertical force to break the print apart.

Instruction

Simply take the two blocks align to the microfiber and cut to the same rectangle size.
Wrap the microfiber around the edge and crimp it down.

@klomar

@haryadiaby1997

can i have the file for the 3 in one holder for the cleaner ? Thank You

@AeonJoey

holly Molly this is cool! mind sharing the 3 tray?!

@feelingextruded

i would also really like the holder aswell!! very cool

@AeonJoey

this is my favorite! thank you! I love the alternative handle and the tray too! I use 99% IPA and it turns my fingers white when trying to wipe with microfiber clothes, with this I use WAY less IPA, and it’s more of a consistent clean, thanks!

@B1ackSwann

Hey, if you don't mind, where did you get the alcohol bottle from? That one is cool!

@AeonJoey

Replying to @B1ackSwann :

It's from amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LZG4RDO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You can also find these at beauty supply stores, they're used by nail salons and hospitals.

@Mitch23

Microfiber Holder

Nice tool. Unfortunately there is not enough area to grip and the thread gets stuck due to sloping overhangs when pressure is applied. I recommend a smaller layer height when printing.

@kstudioca

Awesome feedback, I'll add an alternative knob for thinner cloth. The main reason of the current design is to prevent over torque and breaks the print threads, so it actually stops when bottom out at the inner top.

I have added the Alternative Knob in the profile.

Replying to @kstudioca :

If it were up to me it would have to be 5mm higher and grippier.

@porlock

Microfiber Holder

amazing , i did use a thick microfiber but you need 4 hands , to push it from all 4 sides

Fantastic. Cleaning plates was inconvenient (in a first-world-problems kind of way), and this takes it down to a few seconds. I'm using it along with the alcohol bottle that @AeonJoey posted below, and it's a huge quality of life improvement.
