Just a preview of my 3D printed CETME/G3 bending jig, mostly because I want to use the pic elsewhere on the internet. Here's my printed jig all mocked up. Hopefully I get some time to
actually try this thing out this weekend. The mandrel portion is made
from more pieces than it needs to be because I changed my mind on the
design half way through printing and didn't want to reprint the whole
thing so I just added to what I already had. The mandrel has a little
gap in the middle too because I had to kill a print towards the end so I
could leave for work and it ended up a little short(I don't like
leaving the printer going when I'm not home). I don't think the gap
will affect how it works, but if it seems like it's going to cause a
problem I can just print a little filler piece. There are a few more
pieces to it that aren't pictured, but we'll have to wait and see if it
works like the picture in my head says it should.
