Description
I was searching for the EGO stubby nozzle to print and noticed all of those files were taken down. I had printed one for my EGO 530, but just upgraded and needed the newer design file. Very glad that Vehicular created this version to use - thank you! I actually think it's a better design since I've had issues removing the stubby. I might have scaled it down too small on my end, as it wouldn't pop off even with squeezing.
That said, I liked the twist retention concept, but felt like it needed an actual "lock" as the nozzle still tended to twist at will. With Fusion 360 (thanks for the step file!) I added a small ramp at the end of the interior "twist channel" which snugs up the nozzle to the blower via friction as you twist. I printed it at 99% and it was a perfect snug fit for my EGO 650. No movement or twisting during use.
