The CLAW!

My printer is all black and reminded me of an arcade game "The CLAW!" It was an old chain driven gantry crane for robbing kids of their change. Well I decided to make a flimsy version of the claw mechanisim I had in my head. It replaces the red piece on the extruder, and turns your printer into a The CLAW! game. The top piece needs to be drilled out so the filament goes threw np. The bottom put on the filament , it friction fits. Then you have a rather clumsy gantry crane.

This is seriously tiny. Screws wont fit use wire , its cheaper. The connectors should have the claw closed with the two pieces together..

For mine, 12mm extract closes it and 12mm extrude opens it. :D
