Yet another makerbot Z stage crank...All the other cranks are nice (I like http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1359 in particular) but they all have those pesky handles. And with the foldable crank, every now and then I forget to fold it and it runs into something. Also, I found that I wasn't using the handle that sticks up -- I'd just use the length of the crank for leverage and push it around with my finger.So, this crank is a little bit longer than the foldable crank when folded, and instead of a handle, it has three possible places you can stick a finger for maximum comfort and control.Print with some slippery plastic that is a little soft (like ABS).This doesn't have a hole for a set screw, but the hole should be tight on M8 threaded rod, and the beveled edges should help get it started. Carefully screw it on while trying to keep it level. Only screw it on until it is tight, not all the way... the plastic should be threaded by the rod as you tighten it if it is soft enough.Use it to manually raise your Z platform high enough that you can make sure everything clears and it will never hit anything during build.
