3D printer file info

3D model description

UPDATE 2 - Feb 15, 2022 Added photos showing how I used custom supports when slicing. YMMV - You know your printer best.

UPDATE Feb 15, 2022 I just learned that the originally uploaded file was in inches. I don't know how that happened! I converted it to mm, and uploaded the .3mf file so you can use that to be sure of the units. Sorry for any trouble!

This anchor storage solution attaches to the gear track on a fishing kayak and holds a 3lb claw anchor, and provides a hook on the side to hold a spool of line. By putting an eye-bolt at the front, the anchor-storage provides a place to clip the anchor-line.

Mount to the kayak with 1/4" bolts & t-nuts. See my hex-nut holder design for a helpful tool there.

Designed and printed this for my kayak (Vibe Shearwater 125) and it works well. I will use it throughout this summer and possibly update the design over the winter again.

I printed this in PETG, back-side (the part with the fish-shaped drainage) on the bed. I needed extra supports to go up the base past the lowest hole, but maybe you won't? Use a high-infill for strength. It's big and takes a long time to print!

I would love to see your prints and kayaks!
