arrrggghhh - doing my head in with this design! Can someone please come to my rescue!

 

My wife does a lot of pottery but has recently hurt her hand and found a device that assists people with centering clay on the wheel. I want to print multiples in different sizes but need a single STL file to begin with and I have no idea on how to do this. Is anyone keen to give me a hand (pardon the pun) to create the STL? Here is an image of what I want to create

Im a frequent contributor on this thread, but honestly temu is just easier --> here is a perfectly manufactured one for R60 https://share.temu.com/WhzBPuWdOfA

Yeah. We did think of that. But ideally we want a few different sizes.

Made this for my Trek Rail.

Seems to be working well

Anybody ever printed one of these, or would like to attempt to?

Designed this Number board holder for a gopro mount, for the CTCT forward facing number. Not sure if we even need these numbers to start the event, but here is an .STL in case you feel the need.

they're around R50 on aliexpress with free shipping -  i wouldn't recommend this as a 3d printed part

Printed myself a nifty rotor guard. Looks pretty cool!

I want to tweak the design and re-print it sometime

Printed myself a number board holder and Varia seat bracket. 

Not in super quality just good enough for me, to save time

I do, for my own sanity, strengthen bits here and there with either Epoxy or Superglue/Bicarb ... e.g the 2 little 'hooks' over the saddle rails for the Varia 

Will also use a camera lens tether on the Varia for peace of mind
