+Stu Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Hi all. I was wondering if there's anyone out there with a 3D printer that could help me out please. I want a bracket for my pocket power box. Similar to the one I've got but with a couple of modifications to allow me to bolt it to a Losmandy plate. I can knock up a drawing and can reimburse for any materials used.

+bryand Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I have a printer but limited CAD skills. More detail needed - a picture of the pocket power box and the environment of the Losmandy plate would help. +Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stu Posted April 8, 2023 Author Share Posted April 8, 2023 Basically just a wider version of this (minus the 4 holes in the middle), with 2 holes either side to take M6 bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Dobber Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I've got a 3D printer but that's beyond my pay grade I'm afraid... Never done anything with embedded bolts or anything like that. There's a few things here, presume you've seen: https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=pocket+powerbox&page=1&type=things&sort=relevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Dobber Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Just realised you don't want those four bolts anyway, hmmm. It is possible. I've had vague success with Fusion360 making stuff from scratch but not used for a while so might have to re-learn from the basics and haven't really got the time I'm afraid... +Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite what I'm after though. The alternative would be just a flat plate that I could attach my existing bracket to. Just with 4 holes (need to be countersunk) to match the middle ones and the M6 holes either side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stu Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 * 5mm thick Or this would do the job. I can just glue my bracket on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bryand Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Wouldn't a piece of 5 mm plywood be simpler and quicker to make? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stu Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 It probably would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
