Glass Bed Clamp for Printrbot Simple Metal w/ Heated Bed
Description
After Looking At Various Glass Bed Clips, I Determined That None Of Them Were Right For The Very Thick Heated Bed Of The Printrbot Simple Metal. Therefore, I Fired Up My Copy Of Fusion 360 And, 14 Revisions Later, Had Something That Fit My Needs. **Update**: The Versions That I Printed In Abs Worked For About A Month And Then Became Ineffective Due To Fatigue. I'Ve Printed A New Set Out Of Petg Which Also Hold Quite Well And Will Try To Report On Their Performance Over Time. **Further Update**: The Petg Printed Versions Remained Effective For Close To A Year, So That'S My Current Recommended Material. Design Constraints Included: * 25Mm Bed Thickness * 30Mm From Edge Of Bed To Glass * 3Mm Glass Thickness * 14Mm Lip At The Bottom Of The Bed The Resulting Clip Allows The Bed To Have A Full Range Of Motion And Holds Tightly To Both The Bed And The Glass. It Should Probably Work Decently For Different Glass Thicknesses. It'S Been Designed To Print In Abs Or Petg -- Other Materials May Not Have The Correct Flexibility And Heat Tolerance. I Printed It With 15% Infill And A Single 0.8Mm Perimeter, But It Will Probably Work Fine With Your Favorite Settings As Well.
