Description
Recently got an IC-R10, it had no belt clip. I have a 3d printer and Fusion360. Now here we are.
Threading of the inserts is M3. I used M3x6mm socket head screws and modeled with them in mind. For reference, the space between inserts is 30mm.
I initially had the clip itself the full width, but that was uncomfortable in the hand, especially with the sharp edges. The next iteration or two resulted in this design, with a slimmer clip itself, gap between the bottom hook and back of the unit, and chamfered vertical edges for more comfort in the hand.
When printing, orient with the two cutouts facing up, and generate supports for the angled ramping top for extra help.
I may make another version which has a smoother bottom hook for easier attachment to pants or belts.
