Glass Bed Clamp
Description
**Feedback: This clamp worked great for many PLA prints; but, as of late I've been doing prints which required 100c bed temps. The clamps held for at least a dozen hour+ prints but then failed. 100c is the glass temp of both PETG and ABS so as of this moment I do not recommend using these if printing with 100c bed temps.** This is a clamp that holds a glass bed in place on the build plate. I designed it to work with the HEVO bed design, although it can work with others. There is three different sizes of clamps with jaw gaps of 12, 15, and 18 mm. - **Material to complete for each clamp:** - M3 x 16 mm screw - M3 hex nut <br> - M4 x 20 mm screw - M4 hex nut *There is quite a bit of mechanical advantage when using this clamp. Watch the hold down and glass when tightening to judge the amount of clamp pressure required.* *Position the clamps so that the nozzle, probe, fan duct, etc. does not come into contact.* I am currently using these clamps to hold the glass build plate on a hypercube printer. They are printed in PETG and I'm still evaluating how they hold up to use with the heated bed. The things that may change is the printing material and thickness of the hold down. If you need a different jaw clearance, leave a note in the comments.
