New Tool Rest for the Dremel Lathe

New, improved tool rest for my original Dremel Lathe design you can find here:

Hardware required:

4 x M2 x 12mm hex head bolts 4 x M2 nuts 1 x M4 x 12mm hex bolt 1 x M4 nut 1 x M4 washer 2 x M3 x 12mm hex bolts 2 x M3 nuts

Printed Parts:

PTEG filament 0.15mm layer height 100% infill No skirt or brim Supports under the nut gaps for the base plate and top plate parts

The .3MF files are scaled and oriented properly. If you're using the .STL files orient them with the open nuts facing down (with supports in those nut holes). Scale to 101% to achieve correct clearances for the bolts and slider.

Assembly is pretty obvious - an M2 screw at each corner. Insert the cams into the side slots and secure with the M3 bolts. Attach the tool rest part with the M4 bolt with the washer between the rest and the top plate.

Slide the base out to adjust the distance to the workpiece in the lathe and rotate the tool rest to an appropriate angle. Lock the slider with the cam levers.
