Heated Build platform Coupling.

I got tired of having my clamps scrape the bottom of my heated bed, so I designed a build platform coupling. This coupling wraps around your heated bed and your glass (3mm thick)

There are two full build plates one has supports in the rails for printers that have problems printing long bridges, one does not. there are also individual sections encase one breaks you don't have to print the whole thing again.

Note

As this is just a test concept until it is somewhat perfected or until i can print it out myself, please be careful when installing and using this item as if made out of pla and the heated bed is heated to ABS temps it will warp, ABS should hold up a little better.

Vitamins needed.

4 m3 10mm screws.

4 m3 nuts.

Again This is a work in progress and has not been printed yet (printer is being upgraded), please print at your own risk. If you do happen to make one please upload your pics.

As this is also a work in progress, suggestions are much appreciated, and the design will change.

UPDATE

Added: Thicker rails to accommodate the glass being in further from the edge.

Added: through holes for the heated bed mount screws.

Added: supports again in the models. Supports are .5mm thick

I will upload a version without supports as well to allow Slic3r or skeinforge to do the supports.
