Description
Made this to give rear support to my Sliger CX2177a in a Gator Case 4U rack case. Designed for posts that are 18" apart front to back. I have not tested compatibility with other models but this might work with Sliger's other 2U cases as well. This gives you a way to support the back of your CX2177a without needing access to the sides for installation. This is counting on the front doing most of the work holding up the weight. The bars are 9.5mm thick and 30mm tall which should be pretty strong though. Some post processing may need to be done to the bars if you get elephants foot from your print. Otherwise once attached to the case and the rack posts I found it worked quite well. Models: Sliger CX2177a threaded rack post mount receiver: Wraps around and mounts to the threaded hole rack posts. Bar slides through opening to hold rear of case up UNTESTED Sliger CX2177a square hole rack post mount receiver: Cut the back off of the threaded hole receiver to support square hole racks and cage nuts. I have not tested it though. Sliger CX2177a support bar 4 holes: 4 sets of oval holes for M4 screws Sliger CX2177a support bar 6 holes: 6 sets of oval holes for M4 screws You will need some M4 10 mm long screws for the bars. Rack post receivers are designed to be used with the fine thread 10-32 screws. Video talking about the mount: https://youtu.be/NzgNlxeB9qU
