Ariston Oven Knob
Print Profile(2)
Description
Hello everyone!
INTRODUCTION
I created this oven knob replacement for my country house oven, which unfortunately fell and broke. Considering the cost of a new one and its relatively infrequent use, I decided to recreate it myself, even incorporating a few improvements. The oven in question is an older Ariston model from 2008.
(See the comparison photo to appreciate the aesthetic differences from the original) Of course, this is a demonstration photo showcasing the fidelity of the reproduction, as I noticed signs of wear on the other knob, prompting its replacement.
ITEM
The item is a faithful reproduction of the original, with a 37mm diameter and a 17mm handle height. The total height, including the knob's fitting onto the oven pin, is 21mm. The recess is specifically designed for this pin (see photo), which has a diameter of 5.9mm and a cut on one side to determine the insertion direction.
The improvement I mentioned earlier concerns the pin's seat, which originally featured supporting tabs—the very elements that contributed to the knob's breakage during the fall. I replaced these with a cone for enhanced durability.
I also retained the notch indicating temperature and mode, conveniently coloring it white for better visibility.
The print process employed standard Bambulab settings, with no significant alterations. Notably, I oriented the joint to the rear for enhanced aesthetics.
The file is provided for printing either a single model or a pair.
Print times are:
- single: 23 minutes
- pair: 40 minutes
The pictured item was printed using a Bambulab P1S with Bambulab PLA Matte Charcoal Black filament.
N.B. I used PLA because it's not in continuous contact with high temperatures; only brief contact with heat occurs when opening the oven door. Before printing, carefully consider this aspect to choose the right material for your needs and prevent deformation.
I hope you find this useful, as I did!
