Description

There are several very good designs on Thingiverse to help get a GU10 mounted in place. Unfortunately none of these would work for me as the bulb I was replacing is flush mounted into the kitchen range hood. That's where this design came in. This will allow the installer to mount into place a flush-mounted bulb. It's worth noting that this design alone will not work as the user will likely have to place 2-3 sheets of dampened paper towel between the bulb and tool to provide some "grip" to the tool. You may also choose to use a strip of double-side mounting tape, like servo tape for example, in place of the damp paper towel. You will need supports to print but this is not a bad thing: The rough material left behind from removing the supports helps to grip the paper towel if you choose to go this route.
