Description
Originally I had a perch that fit on top of this, but the cat never used that. This gives the top some more utility.
This is meant to fit onto the corner of the cat scratching post, to attach a stringed toy. There are 3 total parts:
The 2 halves are meant to be printed with the point facing upward from the build plate. Holes in both sides are for M5 screws and bolts, so you can fasten it to a 3/8" (10mm) or larger diameter dowel. You'll need some supports for these prints, but they should be minimal. Recommend printing the loop so support is only required inside the dowel tube.
This should fit pretty snugly. Unless your cat puts a LOT of stress on it, you shouldn't have to worry much about the mount slipping off. You should be able to print this in PLA or any stronger material. Shown example is bone white filaments.ca PLA, and has been in use for over a month.
