LowRider 3 CNC - printed holder for Kobalt Router's Wrench(es) and (ER-11 compatible) Collet-Nut Set

NOTE: as of January 20, 2024, there is now another new remix of this, that does not require loosening and retightening of existing an M5 screw on the LowRider that holds a Z end-stop switch. So far, the new remix is only available for the Kobalt router variation. The new remix is here. 

NOTE: as of December 4, 2023, there is now a remix of this that is only for V1E LowRider makers wanting to combine regular size YZ plates + my hidden belt mod + this holder. If your situation does not seek to combine all three, then the original design below should be fine for you. The new remix is here.

This video gives all the juicy details, plus has some gratuitous plasma cutting thrown in too!

The original part was for Makita router's wrenches and collet. This one is for Kobalt router's wrench(es) and (ER-11 compatible) collet-nut set.

Prints without supports.

See pics or video for the tiny screw I used in the lower corner. It's a little wood screw, about 3mm or so in diameter. The other screw is the M5 that's already holding the Z endstop switch. The part I remixed already had a capture slot for the M5 nylock nut, so I kept that. 

Includes options for both left side (X-min) and right side (X-max), and variations for both normal size YZ plate and the extra tall YZ plate originally remixed by Dan @SupraGuy on V1E forum. 

If you use it, post your make here with a pic or two —and award it some stars!  😊

I'm also including my SketchUp files for each part.

This is remixed from “V1 Lowrider 3 LR3 Collet Holder” by a fellow LowRider maker: mobiusl on Thingiverse, January 20, 2023.
