The file 'Handle – Large, Hidden Mount, M4 3D Printer Model' is (FCStd,stl) file type, size is 346.2KB.
General purpose handle with hidden M4 mounting. Large size easily usable with four fingers even with larger hands.
I used guppyk's handle design as a blueprint, thx!
Height: 20mm
Depth: 35mm
Outer distance: 138mm
Inner distance: 90mm
Mounting hole distance: 108mm
Print on the high side of your printing temperature range for best layer adhision to print a strong handle.
Material
Print in PLA or ABS to use ironing on the top surface for best quality. PETG and ironing doesn't work well. This only works with the slots for the nuts facing the print bed!
Layer height
Use variable layer height to let the slicer (SuperSlicer, PrusaSlicer) choose a lower layer height on the curves (~0.1mm) and higher layer height on the straight walls (0.3mm). Otherwise 0.2mm is fine.
Perimeters & Infill
I recommend at least 3 perimeters, 4 perimeters for heavy loads. Infill around 20%.
FreeCAD file added, uses sketches for easy custumization. Change dimensions, chamfer (size/type), mounting holes etc. have fun :)
