Topic: Vertical Mounting Bracket

Here is vertical mounting bracket that allows for easy installation/removal of the filastruder from the wall without the need to modify the filastruder itself i.e. drill additional holes etc.  Just push in and gravity dos the work in holding it in place.

Re: Vertical Mounting Bracket

Very nice! I envisioned something like this when I designed v2.0, but never CAD'ed one up.

Great work.

Re: Vertical Mounting Bracket

Thanks, I just didn't want to have to drill into the filastruder in anyway to mount it, plus I wanted it easy to remove for maintenance.

I'll probably increase the base thickness another 10mm as it's a bit shallow for the funnel I'm using as I currently have it mounted. (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:277996), hence why its mounted on the far side of the trolly I made.

Re: Vertical Mounting Bracket

I like it! Could I trouble you for a design file? I'd like to try adjusting it a little for my setup. I have mine clamped to a shelf right now, I'm thinking if I added a bit of a bracket to your design, I might be able to use fewer clamps. big_smile
