Summary

Bug-A-Salt 3.0 Trigger and Safety Switch:

I was looking for models of the trigger and safety switch since I've gone full “tactical” with my Bug-A-Salt and couldn't find any, so I decided to make replacement models myself.

Printing:

  • I printed both items with supports; the trigger was a bit difficult to clean up, so you might want to experiment with how you place this on the bed. I put mine on the most flat side, for example.
  • My prints are in Prusament Galaxy Black PETG

Finishing:

  • I painted the areas close to the end to show some color when the safety is engaged on each side.
  • I also sanded the front of the trigger a bit up to a high grit to make it feel smoother.

Files:

Included are the .STL, 3MF, and .STEP files if modifications are desired.


General safety Disclaimer

Any parts of this project are for the Bug-A-Salt 3.0, while not a toy, is not a firearm. This is intended to add functionality to a product that fires table salt to kill insects. Please print this responsibly and understand the implications of modifying this tool which may more closely appear as a functional firearm. I'll only be using this indoors, so if using “in public” you might want to print this in more obvious colors, etc.
