Air Pressure Regulator Stand
This a simple 3D-printable stand for an air pressure regulator and cleaner. Although you could use an in-line regulator to change the air pressure, there aren't many options for inline dust/oil filters. Air filters are typically designed to be wall-mounted, so I just designed a small stand that kept the filter upright on my bench.
Print the Stand
Print out the attached STL. The geometry will work as-is on a FormOne (that what I used), so you'll probably have to make modifications to work on other 3D printers.
Add the Pressure Regulator and Fittings.
The pressure regulator and fittings came from McMaster Carr.
The pressure regulator (McMaster 4989K101) is a combination regulator and filter. It removes oil and other particles down to 0.01 micron. The regulator adjusts from 7-120 psi.
The input fitting (McMaster 52115K202) is a push-to-connect fitting for 1/4" OD tube. You'll want to swap this part if you want a barbed or other type of connection. Just make sure it has a 1/8" NPT end to screw into the regulator body.
The output fitting (McMaster 5203K918) is a push-to-connect fitting for 1/8" tube. Again, if you need a different output, just make sure it has a 1/8" NPT end to screw into the regulator body.
