REVISION HISTORY

  • 2023-07-23: v1.01 released - resolved issues with overhangs in the “teeth” 
  • 2023-05-08: v1.00 released

 

PROBLEM

I found out that though my JST tweezers, being very effective for pulling out and connecting back JST connectors, it's difficult to use it in tight spaces. Learned it the hard way when I had my first broken filament in the Bambu Lab AMS.

SOLUTION

Just by having the tweezers slightly bent makes a huge difference to be able to reach the JST connectors so I created another version that is angled by 60°.

BENEFITS

Personally, I find the angled version more ergonomic but equally as effective as the original design.

NOTES

  1. Print as oriented; supports not needed
  2. Use brim if your print won't adhere to your build surface
