Description
*** I no longer own this printer so support for this is limited! There have been reports of the left side clips binding so you may need to make your own modifications depending on how tight the clips fit. ***
I wanted to add a glass bed to my Monoprice Mini Select 3D Printer but could find no clips for it so I created my own. These clips will allow you to level your bed and you can remove the glass easily for print removal. I found a 130mmx130mmx3mm glass bed on eBay that fits well for this print bed. I also worked with a 140mmx140mmx3mm glass bed but it sticks out in places. *** Note that these clips do not clip down on the glass, but push in tightly to hold glass in place. ***
You need to print two of the Back Left corner clips (goes on Back Left and Front Right corners) and two of the Back Right corner clips (goes on Back Right and Front Left corners).
*** Make sure you print out a Z-axis shim first and install before trying to use glass plate! ***
The clip is customizable if you have your own glass plate it should work for both larger and smaller glass plates if you customize it.
*** I think this is the final version! Note: I printed with 100% infill and black ABS on this printer for the final version. ***
*** I recommend printing just one clip and seeing how it fits and making modifications in customizer or openscad before printing them all! ***
