Description

PDF

This model lets you mount the MMU3 Buffer on the side of the Prusa Enclosure like a wall clock. Prusa Enclosure has numerous holes on the side and the back, so it can be mounted on one of them. 

Since the original "segmenter-R4.stl" part was thin, it would sag when suspended only by one side. So I made some modifications. 
- Overall thickness of the part was increased by 8mm.
- Thickness was increased by 4mm on the side of the screw hole.
- Screw hole was elevated by 2.5mm to avoid contact with the pre-installed M4x5r screw on the enclosure.

Requires: 
- Five M3nS (square nuts)
- One M3x8 screw

An ordinary M3x8 screw can be used. However, tightening the screw would be quite a challenge if you are planning to mount the buffer close to the rear of the enclosure. I recommend using the M3x8 thumb screw which comes with the “Quick release PSU cable”.

The "segmenter-R4 sidehole.stl" file is a single color print file. 
The "segmenter-R4 sidehole, 2colors, Prusaslicer.3mf" file is, as the file name says, a two color multicolor print, exported from Prusaslicer. The letters are merged.
