3d Printable Screw and Nut

With lot of Trial and Error I believe I came up with most functional and most minimally sized 3d printable screw for the Bambu (lot of Bambu users here) machine at standard .2mm layer with standard .4 nozzle.

If you print without infill, just solid plastic it should be strong enough for most projects.

This design is especially made for this phillips screw, CR-V 2.5, it should fit like a glove.

I came up with this design because the previous 3d printed screw broke, had a hard time taking it out. I realized if I create continuous through slots, even if it breaks I can still easily unscrew it.

Is this by design or just glitches in S3D? :slightly_smiling_face:

Glitch, I did Parasolid that should work.

Like a nimrod I came with this because I embedded an 3d printed screw in my camera, broke it and couldn’t take it out. Had a bright idea of using Paint Thinner to melt the PLA in the metal socket but somehow it got through and fried the motherboard. :face_holding_back_tears:

Here is the Shapr file if you like to adjust parameters via variables.

This is not a thread generator, but just a optimized PLA thread with adjustable size and tolerance adjustments.
