TSA002 slightly inaccurate? TSA006 too small

Open kouwei32 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I have just recently tested TSA002 on 2 locks. Curiously, it worked once on the first lock - unlocking it easily - but hasn't worked again (the key goes in but doesn't turn in the other direction). It only went halfway into the second lock. Seems like there's a bit of inaccuracy on the model, but I'm not sure if it is really the model or the print that is broken.

TSA006 was also way too small (but mentioned already in #22). I'm currently also printing an updated one from johnnyxmas's repo for a test later.

I can provide pictures and measurements later if necessary, since I'm a bit busy right now.

Please watch this explanation of tolerances (or lack thereof) with these locks AND the inherent flaws in 3D printing to begin with: https://youtu.be/GekBT0a3STQ?t=2042

On my lock I think the TSA002 is too long and reaches the bottom of the keyway before engaging all the pins. I'll send images tomorrow.

EDIT. the measures are exactly the ones of the stl.
