This is truly an amazing mechanism (mainly because no hardware parts and using a lever). I wonder if its possible to add a second lever to subtract 1 from the total.
Thanks! It might be possible to add a subtraction lever in the future. I could even add additional levers for the tens and hundreds digits. Maybe I'll explore that in a future project... I still need to meditate on that..
Hi, thanks for sharing looks awsome! I inmedeatly thought a second lever for 10 increaments would be a nice touch. Do You think this would be possible by modifying your design? I would love to give it a try, do you have CAD files somewhere available?
Is it possible to shrink the size of this and still have it be functional? I'm hoping I can shrink this by at least 30% in size and still have it function the same way
It depends on your printer's capabilities. The smallest feature is around 1mm, so you'll need to ensure that your printer can handle that level of detail. You can verify this in your slicer settings.
Somehow I missed your comment. Scaling up in the slicer is possible, but watch out for tolerance issues and changes in spring flexibility. It might require some tweaking. Did you give it a try?
How should I print the one's, ten's and hundred's wheel regarding support because I am trying to print it and just wondering what way the creator intended it to be printed
I didn't include specific instructions on how to print the parts because each printer has its own strengths. However, to answer your specific question, I printed the parts with a raft and oriented them with the gear side facing up to ensure the best quality for the gear.
I printed this today. Did not work at all. It clicked a few times but more often than not, the spring doesn't click and the number rollers get jammed and the lever spring shot out and snapped my thumb. Anything I'm doing wrong?
You are doing everything right! I just need to do some little tweaks in this clutch spring and the lever switch, I think the problem is that the clutch spring is printed with different stiffness on different printers because it's thin. I will upload those parts and a better version of the zeroing knob in the next few days. I will update you when it's ready...
@@itsonmm wow thank you so much for taking the time to work on improving this. Im in the process of moving right now but once I get settled in to my new place I'll definitely give the new parts a try!
Great design! I should immediately make one)
Pretty impressive right here!!!
Exactly what I was looking for. Most 3D printable counters don't have a reset feature. This one does.

Great video! Looks very well designed. I'll definitely make one!
You could also just use a sharpie or some kind of permanent marker to paint the digits. Amazing video!
It's very clever! Thanks!
Very cool! Great video❤🎉

Awesome

Can I just scale up a bit, in the slicer to have bigger size ? Any issues expected ?

Do you have a model with more digits?
No...

do you recomend any 3d printer that is cheap?
Ask 10 people, you will get 20 answers. Prusa Mk3s. Old model = cheaper than Mk4. Old model is still good for 3D printing.
Here's another answer: Bambu A1 Mini. Prints beautifully out of the box.
I have Anycubic Kobra 2 (not Neo!) and it works just fine.
Didn’t work, am disappointed
I'm still tweaking the design... I will update.
