Blackstone Pro Series Hook

thingiverse

Needed a storage place for the XL basting dome, made these hooks to fit in the vents on the side panel of the Pro Series Blackstone, it may work with other models that have the same siding. I used the hook customizer to build a hook to hold the basting dome by the handle. I made the hook a little longer than the scad model would allow in tinkercad. I also added the base plate so if anyone want to add their own peripheral. Printed left and right aligned hooks on the hook side with support and the center one with support on its side as well. Each base has a hole for the lock stl, the tabs are slotted to bear weight on the panel, the lock is to just pin it in place. The hole is just barely oversized .1mm from the lock pin, if a bigger hole size is needed leave a comment and can upload another. I gave a lot of thought to the lock style, I don't have much experience in design so a straight tee shape is the best I could do, if someone with some skill wanted to improve it please do, I was hoping some kind of tapered "wedge" but could not get it how I wanted in tinkercad. Another idea I couldn't get figured out is a way to take up the space left between insert and the top of the slot in the siding. The hook can still lift up which could put stress on the lock pin that is small. I printed the first on in PLA, I assume it will heat and deform under a cover on the patio, will most likely print more when I have PETG loaded. Please post your makes and any derivates I'm always looking for storage options.
