Monoprice Select Mini v2 - Modular Tool Holder
Published 2019-11-07T13:05:29+00:00
I've seen several nice designs for tool holders suitable for Monoprice Select Mini 3d printer, however, I kept constantly reprinting them as my needs were changing. First, I was using the stock bed with a pallet knife, so one setup. Then I switched to a glass bed and some PVA glue, which required a different holder, and so on.
The solution for me was to design a modular tool holder similar to a pegboard. So here it is.
The set consists of the modular holder itself (2 rows of 9 evenly spaced M3 holes) and a few addons:
- Front-facing hook (4.3mm width, can hold any tool, quite strong);
- Side-facing hook (2mm width, not as sturdy, good for wider tools);
- Front-facing loop (7x11mm rectangular cut out);
- Variation with a 2.5mm hex key hole and a small hook;
- Variation with a 3mm hex key hole and a standoff from the surface, in case the screw head is in the way);
- Side-facing loop (3mm round cut out, for hex keys);
- 12.5mm tap wrench holder with holes for M2 and M3 taps;
All the pieces are mechanically connected to the holder with nylon M3 screws. The length of the screws can be between 4 and 8 mm.
You will also need an M3 tap to prepare the holes for the screws.
I am also providing dimensions for the base of each add-on. Feel free to use it to make your designs and share them with the community.
