Description

This is a remix of QuadView's excellent Glock mag holder.  I'm uploading an example G43X model, but the idea is to let you modify the fusion file to suit your own needs.  Feel free to remix or post a make with the parameters you used to help others!  

You will need a minimum of 6 measurements to generate a model:

PlateDepthMeasurement from front to back of the base plate.
PlateWidthMeasurement from side to side of the base plate.
PlateHeightMeasurement from top to bottom of base plate.
OpeningWidth of the mag body.  This is the width of the slot.
AngleAngle of the base plate relative to the mag body.
SlotsHow many mags you want to store.

To get the angle, a digital angle finder is helpful, but I've also had great luck with bubble level apps that can take relative measurements.

There are also optional properties:

ToleranceThis should be higher the less you trust your printer/calipers (default .5mm)
PlateGapSpace between each mag (default 1mm)
StartHeightIf you have particularly heavy mags and want to add some resistance to levering, increase this (default 12mm)
PartitionRecessHow much to recess the partitions.  This is user preference (default 3mm)
FrontShoulderHow far past the mag body does the front shoulder go?  This will set the distance of the bump stop if you are using it

I've had good luck with gravity holding the mags in place, so have made the bump stop optional.  Bump stops may not be desirable if you have multiple brands of magazine like pmag, oem, ets, etc all using different base plate dimensions.  Some may not want the label, so I've also made that optional.  Both features are groups that are labelled in the fusion archive and can be suppressed if you don't want either.

I've found 3 bottom layers, 4 top layers, 3 walls, and 15% infill to be plenty strong with PLA/PLA+.

I tested the model with several of my magazines and it looks like I got things constrained appropriately, but let me know if there are any fixes that are needed and I'll upload a new version!
