DIN-Rail Modular Tool Storage (Free STL Files) 

A bit late but my pleasure! Did it work out as you hoped?

Much appreciated! Apologies for the delayed reply. If you have any questions about this project or the other that I shared feel free to ask!

Thanks for subscribing! You are right, that usally helps more than increasing infill density. There are also a couple other things you can experiment with that will affect the strength, an obvious one is the type of filament but also the orientation and temperature have a significant impact on the endresult. I will upload those in a couple days, I got a list of new models that I am preparing to publish, besides the MT1 MT2 and MT3 I will also add ER16 ER25 ER40 and a couple other cool accessories.

I got some good news for you, they are published! You can find them on my thingiverse account, I will also add links in the description of this video.

Thanks! I live in the Netherlands though not USA but still thank you :)

@@StefsEngineering no problem, i subbed your channel.

Thank you for the comment. I plan to get back to making video's! I'm not sure where to begin though, I've got a lot to show about the paradrone project and a large number of side projects I'd like to share. Oh and I moved to a new house with a new (temporary) workshop and a really cool large workshop that is under construction.

Start with anything, when you start creating the rest will come naturally :)

@@ZOD268 You are right, really no reason to make too big of a deal of it.

No problem, let me know if you like it!

How are they holding up? Still happy with them?

@@StefsEngineering Hi, good to read from you Stef. Despite the fact that my DIY iso30 cnc mill is no longer being used the tool rack is still holding strong and proud. Hope all is well on your end and hope you get to make another great video soon.

@@burningdieselproduction5498 Did it break or did you just move on to something better? I can give a little sneak peek in what I was working on the past 15 months (engineering) and still am working on (with a couple hunderd colleagues). Unfortunately I can't go into details too much but it is an interesting and cool project for sure: The biggest sportfishing yacht in the world. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8oRsUZ164zw.html A couple weeks ago discoverychannel did a item on yachts and you can see the sportfish yacht here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-isxPGtaGBqg.html ( timestamp 1:27 )

@@StefsEngineering well my cnc conversion was taking too much time to run (FR45 clone with manual fool change) and I ended up purchasing a new HAAS SMM. Wđso that was a nail in the coffin for the FR45 cnc. This sounds like an interesting project you were working on! I’ll check in the link now.

WOW WOW WOW! I’ve never seen a ship being built upside down and flipped like that for further constriction! Some mad engineering going on there. You should be proud! I did some work in Middleburg earlier this year on a jackup reactivation project. Netherlands is such a nice country to live and work in.

You as well for watching, did you make some for yourself?

Also for you a bit late but my pleasure! Did it print well and are they nice to use?

Thank you, much appreciated! They are still going strong, even the one with the 80mm facemill on it. (that is the reinforced one)

Thanks!

Thanks for the comment! They do not at the moment, I haven't had any issues with them coming loose from the rail but I was considering updating the models to add a locking screw.

Exactly! But didn't I show it in the past? I believe I also used it in a couple video's, for example the one where I made vise clamp blocks for that milling machine. Well I'm sure it will be featured in one of the next couple video's. Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the reply! I've recieved the same question on thingiverse a couple days ago, was that you?

They are generic from ebay and I am happy with them! Haven't used them too much the last months but up to that point no complains.

Thanks! I did consider making one but after some testing I decided it would be a bad idea to base it on the same model/series. The 40 taper holders are a lot heavier in comparison to the collets and 30 taper holders. Besides that, due to the larger diameter the center of gravity moves farther from the rail. An option is to modify the model more dramatically and add long threaded bolts through the entire holder instead of just the end. I would recommend to make holders from sheetmetal if you want to use them with 40 taper holders.

Thanks for watching, they are M8x20 "flanged button head screws" ISO 7380-2

Thanks for the info, printing one up right now

The design is made to last. The construction is optimized for printing, but of course the strenght depends on multiple factors (printer, printer settings, materials etc). mine are still in great condition, none have failed or show any signs of stress. So it should be fine, but because there are so many variables that affect the final quality I cannot guarantee the quality of your prints :) Thanks for watching though!

They are still going strong so in my situation it's working out great even the holder with the 80mm facemill. It does depend on the filament ofcourse I'm using BASF Ultrafuse PLA Pro1 filament Zwart with great lasting results

I bought it online but domestic (in the Netherlands). The type is: DIN TS35

I just noticed that the whole series is "TS35" so to be more specific: TS35/7.5/1.0 is the type of rail the holders are designed for. (7.5mm deep and 35mm high)

I bought some short pieces off Amazon, and a long (3m) piece at my local electric supply store.

I have to say tat I didn't test it to the limit. I think the thing to watch out for most is fatigue over time. But my 80mm facemill is still sitting well in the holder seen in this video. So that is.... oh damn, 4 years allready. Time to make a new video!
