Making an Easy, Minimalist Connector to a Power Tool Battery Pack #3DThursday
As BigClive points out in this video, there are lots of files on Thingiverse for printing out connector housings that allow you to draw power from portable tool power packs. But many of them seem overly complicated.
So, Clive created this very simple housings that let you attach spade connectors to both Parkside and Ryobi power packs. They only take minutes to print.
Clive includes the OpenSCAD code for the two prints in the description and someone added the code for an improvement on the Ryobi housing. Also, read the comments to the video for a discussion on inline fusing.
