Improved Universal Phone Bike Mount (v2)

Changelog (v2)
This is a version two that solves the two biggests flaws with my previous design. These flaws were the following:
1. The phone clamp was attached by a bolt from the bottom of the bike clamp, something that was inaccessible after the assembly was attached onto the bike. The nut now goes on the bottom and the bolt on the top. This makes adding an allen key much simpler*. 

*1.5. An allen key storage spot has been added.

2. A locating feature has been added to keep the phone in the horizontal orientation. Once the bolts got slightly loose due to the vibrations, the phone would often rotate. This solves this problem.

Simple Phone Mount for my Specialized Crosstrails bike. I wanted something that would attach to the center of the steering wheel and hold my phone stable for navigation.

The only additional hardware needed with this design are the following:

• M3 x 15 MM
• M3 x 35MM (30 works)

Two M3 Nuts I added some electrical tape on the bike for a more snug fit.

My bike has a 35 MM beam with ~20 mm of clearance below it. This only needs 10mm of clearance.

I have attached the design files if you would like to adjust the parameters.

The pieces are calibrated to my Ender 3 Pro meaning that depending on the accuracy of your printer you may have to post process the joints.

If you print this or remix this design, I would love to see your makes and remixes.
