&nbsp;A modular desk clamp. Was inspired by the flash contest to finally do this idea. I was constantly changing the layout of the room and finding, that I need to print “another headphone holder” etc. because I wanted it on the other desk or the cupboard. So why not try to make something, that I can mount everywhere. And why not make it modular?Currently Includeds<ul><li>Desk Clamp (30 mm, 40 mm, 60 mm)</li><li>Desk Clamp vertical (40 mm)</li><li>Slim Edition 25 mm Clamp</li><li>Bolts (50 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm)</li><li>Bolt Cap for more grip (print from TPU)</li><li>Wall Mount</li></ul>Attachments:<ul><li>Simple Spool Holder / Headphone Holder (included)</li><li>A trash bin (included)</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/40956#profileId-40949" rel="nofollow noopener">Cup Holder</a> (also included)</li><li>Tape Dispenser for Modular Desk Clamp</li><li>Pencil Holder</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/218268#profileId-237184" rel="nofollow noopener">Dice Tray</a></li></ul>More modules: See remixes, <a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/u/4048981337/collections/742319" rel="nofollow noopener">Collection</a>, or make your own ;)Print SettingsShould be fine with 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.2 mm layers. I would recommend 3 perimeters and  20 % gyroid infill for good measure.I designed it in a way, that it can be printed completely without supports. Just print it laying on it's side as shown:<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:44.56%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/618877/2023-10-06_8tpymdt02dc5.png"></figure>The mounting bracked does not need supports. The threads have a cutout at the top to prevent overhangs and print cleanly.&nbsp;Modify for your needs, make your own attachment! (post Remix)The mounting mechanism is intentionally simple to allow for customs attachments. The attachment slots in from the top and is held by gravity and friction. A template file of the attachment's mount is also available.<ul><li>STEP files, Fusion 360 files available</li><li>Clamp size adjustable</li><li>Template for Mounting Bracket included → modify to make your own attachment. (Post as Remix, so it can be found)</li></ul><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/618877/2023-10-06_x0zs2unqliof.png"></figure>TolerancesThe threads and the mount are modeled with a 0.3 mm tolerance in the standard file. A high tolerance version (0.5 mm) is attached if you have issues with the fit.  If you only have issues with the threads, just print the higher tolerance bolt, no need to reprint the clamp.There is also a “no tolerance” version of the mount, if you want to manually file it, or just send it with a hammer to have a permanent connection … no guarantees.Side NotesDesign goals<ul><li>Fit my stand desk (17 mm)</li><li>Fit my several IKEA Kallax/Lack etc. (38-50 mm)</li><li>No supports while printing (ideally also for attachments)</li><li>Parametrization for “easy” adjustments</li></ul>Fusion360 gripesI was shocked to find there is no easy way to generate variants from your parametrized model in Fusion360? At least none that I could find … Copy pasted a lot of files. If you have any suggestions, let me know.&nbsp;<h4>Changelog:</h4>2023/06/20: added “trash bin” model |fixed some dependencies in the Fuision360 file 2023/06/21: added slim clamp2023/06/23: added cup holder, added flush bin design, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/511898-tesa-dispenser-for-modular-desk-clamp" rel="nofollow noopener">tape dispenser</a>2023/06/25: added slim clamp variant with lower mount (for flush fit), added TPU bolt cap for more grip2023/07/09:<ul><li>added a clamp variant with the mount on the other side to be able to mount in vertical orientation:</li></ul><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:26.44%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/618877/2023-10-06_h6zlfns5ul07.png"></figure><ul><li>Added a wall mount option with cosmetic lids for the screw holes.  Hole Diameter 6.5 mm - with space for washers (increased stability):</li></ul><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:22.6%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/618877/2023-10-06_jmzqvf4qdmge.png"></figure><ul><li>added 90° variants for the cup holder</li></ul>2023/07/16: added a STEP file for the connector ("Modular Clamp - Connector for your own design.stp")12023/08/25: added STEP file for the slim version on request.2023/10/30: Added Backpack holder (short version of the headphone/spool/whatever holder - thanks to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/@tommifi_196941" rel="nofollow noopener">@tommifi</a> for the idea)2024/03/01: added Pencil Holder2024/03/02: Dice Tray link addded
