Echo Dot Lock - Gen 3 Echo wall mount

thingiverse

More of a re-make than a re-mix, but heavily inspired by @Stevetecx's design. Built from the ground, up, to be robust and secure against repeated removal and installation, or children thinking they can take the alexa out of the dining room to listen to crummy music in their rooms. Also some ease-of-printing considerations. Probably won't break if printed well, but might scratch up that fancy fabric speaker grill around the outside. Maybe smooth that out a little before you jam it in (it gets harder to put in the bracket when it's screwed to the wall) Version 1b v5, (because I can't commit to a version numbering scheme.) -Reinforcement ribs to help keep arms from snapping off. -Lock ring for peace of mind if you're hanging it under a shelf, on the ceiling, in a moving vehicle, or next to mech-jeb on your latest rocket. -Consistant thickness of ring to avoid inner-wall islands and excessive start-stops. -Ring is also Ribbed for stiffness, but will flex when installed, feel free to scale up a smidge for aesthetics if security isn't top priority I printed mine with PETG, 3 walls, 1.2mm-1.5 thick top and bottom, and medium infill. Beefy. Please give feedback! Too tight? Too stiff? Ugly as sin? I've heard it all... ehem... but I wanted it to be difficult for my 5 nieces and nephews to just grab the alexa, so it's form following function.
