If you like my work and enjoy my models please consider leaving me a tip/donation, It helps me to continue creating awesome models for you for free. https://paypal.me/muddymaker UPDATE July 11th: Added optional reinforcement inserts and a tool for seating them. Print two of each and the inserts tool. I recommend they be printed with 100% infill, preferably out of a stiff polymer, ie, PLA, ABS or carbon fiber filled filament to add rigidity and strength to your clamp. They are in the correct print orientation. They are designed to be a tight friction fit. Hammer them in as far as you can with a hammer and then use the included seating tool to hammer them in the rest of the way. The clamp pictured below is printed in ColorFabb XT-CF20 with 6 perimeters/walls, single perimeter top and bottom and 20% infill. The reinforcement inserts were printed in ABS with 100% infill. It is incredible strong. 📷 Image redacted — claim this model to add your own media For maximum strength I recommend printing with a minimum of 6 walls/perimeters and 20% infill, preferably with a carbon fiber filled polymer. Otherwise PETG or PLA will be fine too with the same parameters for lighter load requirements. The opening is wide enough to accomodate clamping things up to 55mm or 2". No supports are required. Happy printing.
