The 12lb DUMMY is simple assembly used in the NHRL Functionality Test for the 12lb Weight Class.

12lb DUMMY with Banana for Scale

The DUMMY will be reviewed and may be tweaked in upcoming events.

The assembly is made up of the following components:

Component Source Number Needed Weight Per Item (g) Total Weight Material Infill Setting
Lower Weight Holder 3D Printed 1 117 117 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 15% Grid Infill
Upper Weight Holder 3D Printed 1 71.4 71.4 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 15% Grid Infill
Short Wall 3D Printed 2 64.4 128.8 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 95% Grid Infill
Long Wall 3D Printed 2 68.2 136.4 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 95% Grid Infill
Lid 3D Printed 2 184.5 369 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 95% Grid Infill
Inner Spacer 3D Printed 5 1 5 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 15% Grid Infill
Foot Spacer 3D Printed 4 2.2 8.8 Bambu Labs PLA Basic 15% Grid Infill
Rubber Bumper McMaster 4 5.8 23.2
Bolt: 1/4-20 x 3.5 McMaster 4 22.8 91.2
Bolt: 1/4-20 x 3 McMaster 1 19.5 19.5
Nut: 1/4-20 McMaster 5 2.5 12.5
Weight Amazon 2 2268 4568 Cast Iron

All 3D prints use the following settings:

3 Floor Layers, 5 Roof Layers, 2 Wall Layers.

Total Weight: 5551g ~= 12.2 pounds

For those who would prefer to cut their own weights, they can be easily cut from steel plate. A small spacer may be needed to account for the difference between the width of the commercially available weights versus the laser cut steel.
