Accu-Cut XL Hooks (for hanging on my LowRider 2 MPCNC table)
Description
I designed and printed 5 of these hooks for hanging my Accut-Cut XL track on my LowRider 2 MPCNC's table. I needed a place to store the track when not in use that was both out of the way and accessible when needed. To see my table design for my LowRider 2 MPCNC, check out my thread on the V1 Engineering Forum, here: https://forum.v1engineering.com/t/doug-joseph-design8studio-full-sheet-lowrider-2-build-on-a-budget/29568/6 Using 1 1/4" drywall screws (black, course thread), I attached these to my torsion box at the junctions where vertical wood sheets meet horizontal wood sheets. That way the full length of the screws had wood. Prints with no supports needed. I have my printers all set so the .4 nozzles emulate .6 nozzles as far as output goes, so when these were printed with 3 perimeter walls, the thickness is the same as 4.5 walls. They are sturdy enough, even with infill at only 30%. Notes on V1 versus V2 ===== If you have not yet printed and installed this, I advise using the new V2 instead of old V1. ***V1 Note:*** my table is 9' long, which is longer than the Accu-Cut XL, so on V1, my fifth hook did nothing to help. The XL's starter plate just hovered over it, touching nothing. Also, with V1 the track was not leaned back enough when resting on the hooks (was too easy to bump off the hook). ***V2 Note:*** the newly added STL files (as of April 21, 2022), which are labelled "V2" — address the above issues: (1) about the fifth hook not doing anything — the design offers a shorter hook (print x 1) to be that fifth hook. Also, both it and the V2 normal hook (print x 4) are beefier. (2) the V2 hooks are set to lean the Accut-Cut XL track back more, to be at a little better angle.
