The two side nut holes protruded 1.35mm too far from the panel.</p><h3>faux-hardware-bolt.stl</h3><p>I lengthened the bolt. The original only passed through ⅗ of the joint. Mine passes through all 5 fingers, but leaves 1mm of space in the last one for tightening.</p><h3>Future Work</h3><p>I'd love to see a version of the faux hardware nut and bolt made for M4 bolts. It would simplify the BoM if you could use M4 bolts and nuts for everything. Another option is to thicken the bottom of the mount-bracket by 1mm. That would mean that you can use another M4×14 nut for the center post. M4×13 is a rather unusual length.</p><h3>Print Settings</h3><p><strong>Printer Brand: </strong>Prusa</p><p><strong>Printer: </strong>i3 MK3</p><p><strong>Rafts: </strong>No</p><p><strong>Supports: </strong>No</p><p><strong>Resolution: </strong>0.2 (Quality)</p><p><strong>Infill: </strong>15%<br><strong>Filament: </strong>Generic PLA or ABS</p><p><strong>Notes:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>I've printed this in both PLA and ABS:</p><ul><li>Prusament Silver PLA (test version)</li><li>Generic ABS (parts of test version, definitive versions) I assume it will print well in PETG too.</li></ul><p>You might want to add a slight bit of elephantiasis compensation. When printing in ABS I use 0.4mm instead of the PrusaSlic3r standard of 0.2mm</p><p>I printed these for a church organised quarantine STEM/Beta activity. We mail the parts out to people (with some adjustments for phone size) and they join a video call where we assemble them together.</p>
