Some, this file, a bit in the wiki, and of course look at the files especially the *.FCStd
Standard Disclaimer:
If you have more than a casual interest in this project you should contact me and
see if the repository is actually in good shape. I may well have improved software

———- stl i have used so far ———
guide_v1.stl
print at 30% to get ideas on dim and printing
orientation
printed in operating position with support
took something over an hour
result:
stem just fit with just a bit of filing
cool block did not fit even with filing ( should file )
fitted in 1/4 inch bolts with tap, did not try to fit nuts
check nut dim against knob tutorial
did fit reduced block of epay and saw works reasonably well with this
seems sturdy enough id not too much so.
Next:
check on nut size
have some un constrained sketch fix
resize the cool block and test print first
