Had a discussion with my neighbor about the possibility of 3d printing a small ish quick release mechanism.
I said sure why not. Quick google search later, I found a few examples of how the mechanism works. spent about an hour to draw it up.
You'll need:
4x m3 10mm
4x m3 nyloc nuts
You might need to sand a few bits, tolerances are a tad tight (The support ridges also don't help)
Reason for flat print orientation (hence the need for supports on a few of the bits) is so we can util the print layers to maximize strength (avoids putting strain on the interfacing layers)
