XL Tools v2 side mount remix

I wanted the same tool, but side-mountable. This allows for some space (not handles) if you have an enclosure.

Description

PDF

Since the original author was so kind to include the files, you can also modify this to extrude the end making it longer if you wish. I did another re-mix like this allowing to hold a pair of scissors also, but it makes it a fairly tight fitting area where it is mounted. I've attached a picture of that printed.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

This is similar to the same model, but I moved the lower section to the side to make it side-mountable. I also changed the locking tabs to allow for easier removal since the original is a hard lock. The locking edges on this model are fileted. The lower locking edge has a greater filet allowing for it to release easier when lifting out and up from the bottom. The upper is only slightly modified, still giving it a strong hold. This works with an enclosure since it sits just outside the edge as seen in the 3d image.
