Description
Clean up your toolhead wiring with this custom mount for the Mellow FLY SHT36 V3 toolboard, specifically designed to fit the Orbiter Extruder!
This mount features a lightweight hex-grid design that not only looks great but also ensures optimal airflow to keep the stepper driver and MCU cool. It is an ideal addition for high-speed Klipper setups where keeping toolhead weight to a minimum is crucial. The design uses separate spacers to provide enough clearance for the components on the back of the PCB.
Features:
Designed specifically for the Orbiter Extruder and FLY SHT36 V3.
Hex-pattern for weight reduction and passive cooling.
Uses standard M3 heat-set inserts for a secure hold.
Assembly Note: The spacers are printed separately and need to be attached to the main mount using a drop of super glue (CA glue). Once glued in place, you can melt in the heat-set inserts.
Hardware Required:
2x M3 Heat-Set Inserts (Melt inserts) for mounting the toolboard.
M3 Screws to secure the board to the mount and the mount to the extruder.
Super Glue (CA Glue) to attach the spacers.
Recommended Print Settings: Since this mount will be located directly on the toolhead, near the hotend and bed, high-temperature resistance is required.
Material: ABS or ASA is highly recommended. PETG might work for lower-temp printing, but PLA will melt or warp very quickly.
Walls/Perimeters: 4 perimeters for extra strength around the heat-set inserts.
Infill: 30% - 40% (Gyroid, Cubic, or Honeycomb).
Top/Bottom Layers: 5.
Supports: Depending on your orientation, you might need minimal supports for the recessed areas or the mounting block.
Tip: Be careful not to push the heat-set inserts in too deep. stop when they are flush with the surface of the spacers.
