Description

I tried other mounts to add a Skadis board to the side of my printer, but they weren't sturdy! This results in the board moving too easily when tools are added/removed. I improved on other concepts by:

  • Improving the tolerance on the piece that hooks over the printer edge, resulting in less “swinging” of the Skadis board when removing/adding tools.
  • Adding two hooks for the board to hang on, further reducing movement.
  • Improved the tolerance of the hooks on the board-end too.

Note if using 3D-printed boards: If it doesn't print evenly (usually if there's warping, or if you haven't leveled or calibrated filament), then one end or corner of your board may be thicker or thinner than others. This may result in a loose or tight fit of the hooks. Looser causes the most problems in my experience. You have a couple of options in this case:

  1. Orient or flip the board to get a better fit on the hooks
  2. Calibrate and re-print the board.
