Description

PDF
  1. Pick your platform (small, wide, 2 arm, or 4 arm)
  2. Pick your clamp (see notes below)
  3. Pick your arm length (recommend 8-10 pieces per arm)
  4. Print
  5. Enjoy!

Notes:

Soldering Clamp - Off Buildplate - This Clamp, if laid parallel to the buildplate will print with 1-2 layers of support needed.  This helps reduce risk of elephants foot fusing the clamp together, but makes one side unsightly and require cleanup.

Soldering Clamp - Touching Buildplate - This Clamp is slightly thicker and may need an exacto-knife to release any fusing that occurs on the build plate side.

See the additional notes on the Arm pieces - whichever you choose, while the vertical orientation doesn't require supports, the clipping mechanisms I found snap off too easily.  I printed many of mine in a horizontal orientation which provided much better strength.
