Description
Having recently purchased a new vehicle the first thing I needed to do was find things to print for it!
I came across this very interesting item, https://www.printables.com/model/350210-2021-f150-cupholder-adapter and immediately recognized any number of benefits it could provide.
As I was not able to locate the arm used in the reference pictures for the insert I decided to design my own.
The GoPro like mount will utilize a 5mmx30mm Hex Head screw or a 5mm nut to help secure devices to the arm.
This is a release candidate version and as I modify or add to the arm I will update this item here.
Be sure to read the notes on https://www.printables.com/model/350210-2021-f150-cupholder-adapter which requires 2x4mm inserts and I used 4mmx20mm Philips/Cross head screws to secure the arm.
Print the arm with the “top” on the printer bed using supports for overhangs. Organic supports work well.
This was printed on a Bambu P1S at 0.12 layer height.
Be SURE to use ABS, ASA, or another filament that can survive the temperatures inside a vehicle.
Enjoy and please let me know how you find it useful!
