Dyson Bookshelf Vacuum Attachment by MatthewLaBerge Jan 5, 2010

Description

I have several bookshelves at home that are about 8ft in the air with neat little storage boxes on them. Getting them down to dust is kind of a real pain and usually a lot of dust comes down with them. I thought (in Windows 7 terms) there's got to be a better way! I designed an attachment for our Dyson vacuum cleaner that fits between the box and sucks up all of the dust, much smarter.

I have included the native Pro/Engineer CAD file for those of you who are lucky enough to have Pro/E, everyone else can use the attached STEP file.

Thanks! I created my own RepStrap from an old CNC machine I salvaged from work.

What RepStrap machine do you have? I am jealous of such a large printing area. :)

Awesome idea! I love it, thanks!
Thanks for the sources also. Best practise for the win!

Instructions

This attachment is really long just over 300mm it was designed to print on my RepStrap which has a build envelope of 325mm x 325mm. It will definitely not print on the current generation Makerbot. When printed diagonally on the build base it will require a footprint of about 250mm square.

I have not yet printed it but I am assuming that a heated bed will be necessary to print this without serious warping.
