Description

This is a remix of Kole's Tesla Gen 3 Wall Connector bracket HERE

I've include my STEP files.

Changes made:

  • Model completely re-drawn in cad, higher polygon count and more symmetrical.
  • NO SUPPORTS NEEDED! - Tapered the interference fit so no supports are required.
  • Countersunk screws for wall half of bracket instead of recessed hole.
  • 4mm clearance from wall, prevents scratching when removing charger
  • Only made screw holes solid with modifiers, not the interference edges as per Kole's original. I found that 4 perimeters with 20% infill is plenty strong.

Hardware required:

  • 6G x 12mm Sheet metal tappers - file 1mm of sharp tip off, for mounting charger half of bracket. Link to Bunnings screws HERE
  • 8g 38mm - countersunk screws for wall half of bracket. Many sizes will fit, hole is M5. Link to Bunnings screws HERE

Print Settings:

  • I printed on a Prusa MK3s+
  • 0.4mm nozzle
  • 0.3mm Layer height
  • 20% infill
  • PETG for strength and heat resistance
  • 4 perimeters, 4 layers top and bottom
  • Added solid infill modifiers to screw holes for strength. See screenshot. You can load the 3mf file for a closer look.
  • I increased the bed temp to 90 degrees. Mainly because this print takes up the whole bed and I didn't want any temperature roll-off towards the edges.
  • 372.52 grams of filament ~15hr print time at standard speed

 

Thanks to Kole for the inspiration with his original model.
