Useful 3D printed tools for the machine shop

This video highlights 3 tools that I've made for teaching apprenticeship I'm attaching links to download the STL files so you can print them out yourself and try them

In most public libraries at least in Canada there are 3D printers that you can use for free

If you have ideas on how these tools can be improved or other tools that could be made that would help apprentices let me know and maybe we could work on something together

The biggest problem that I'm running into right now is where to post and store the STL files I tried using Thingiverse and that's sort of problematic and currently my storage On one drive the links expire after 365 days

Before commenting please keep in mind that almost everything that I design and print are four apprentices so there's limited experience and also limited investment in tools

Skilled and properly trained tradesmen might not find these useful

Thank you for taking the time to watch and if you comment thank you as well
