Description

Wanted to reprint this in PAHT-CF so it would endure the scorching Arizona summers but also wanted to make some adjustments to the design to make it even easier to print then my first version.

 

Changes:

-V2 now prints at a default orientation on its side with the front laying down against the plate.

 

-Various small adjustments and changes have been made to reduce filament usage by about 30% since this can now be printed without using any supports.

 

-The inner top face of the slots have an added ‘support’ arm added to allow for the long bridging in this area.

 

-Triangular cutouts added to front face as design element and to reduce filament use while maintaining necessary rigidity.

 

-Side circles cutouts have been replaced with triangular elements for different look and also to facilitate cleaner print with no supports.

 

-All other mounting holes and dimensions identical to V1 and still 100% with the mounting plate.

 

Designed this mounting system to for my F250s center dash console to attached AMPS and RAM mount style plates/balls. Inspired by similar systems sold by various vendors, but with adjustments to add the required rigidity for 3D printed application.

 

Grab the back plate also for added strength and rigidity when attaching to the plastic dash tray:

Printed in PAHT-CF, and is very strong.

Great! Glad it worked out for you. The one arm I'm using at the moment is one I repurposed from old spring tablet mount I got on amazon pictured. The arm fit a standard 25mm ball just fine. Also looks like these are a good alternative to the more expensive arms and thinking about ordering one up to try for adding additional device to my mount: https://www.amazon.com/FANAUE-Aluminum-Double-Compatible-Components/dp/B0BN8GLCJW/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1J82G7QJ6OA98&keywords=ram%2Bball%2Barm&qid=1707057041&sprefix=ram%2Bball%2Barm%2Caps%2C125&sr=8-9&th=1

Not sure what you mean by choppy and inconsistent as it relates to the model? This sounds like you're describing an issue with your printer's calibration or the filament you used and not being properly dried. PA-CF and any PA based filaments are very sensitive to any moisture and will yield poor printing results if not completely dry before use.
