PVC Pipe Holder for 1.5inch Ball Mount

thingiverse

::Still a work in progress and untested! Beware! Needed to mount my DIY LED lamp for my Native Kayak. Where I'm from, there are a large number of Native Mariner Propel owners. The most common diy lamp for the yak involves a 22mm Outer Diameter PVC pipe which is "pushed" into the side slots. I'm upgrading to a Native Slayer Propel and would like to make use of the tracks/rails that it provides. I will secure a 1.5" ball ram mount to the track and secure this object on the mount. (The ball mount is used so that I can tilt the lamp over the water while fishing or to make it flush with the kayak when stored) The screw hole is currently slightly smaller than that needed for a 1/4". This is intentional but I will be making it larger in another version so that the object can bend easily. v1 is incredibly thick, and in some places, unnecessarily so. It is also nigh on impossible to bend by hand (undesirable as I need to tighten it against the mount) v1 has been tested against a 22mm pipe. With some finishing, it will fit very nicely. v2 reduces plastic use and also introduces more empty spaces in the "grip" area, hopefully so that it can bend. Neither versions have been tested against the ram mount yet. It is my intention to print every layer as a solid layer. This has the added bonus of simplifying any possible derivatives. Instructions Unless you're making a mould, you should probably print this with solid layers, every layer. Just in case.
