There can be found a lot of drip tray mounts or supports for the building plate of the Elegoo Mars printer, but in my eyes by far the best was designed by Joel Knutti alias Jonyk1996:

It can be left at place, holds the building plate very stable and most importantly in a way, the dripping resin concentrates in one corner, so it drips very controlled. It was one of the tools making the work with my Mars 2 much, much easier.
After buying a MARS 4 I just had to adapt this mount to the new printer, so I did – not much a sophisticated modification. But often I print hollow items and to drip these ones, I must turn the building plate around, where the standard mount doesn’t help at all. And here comes in the 2nd remix. It’s made in such a way that it can be clamped just into the guide rail of the printer and as it is foldable it can also be left in place – all the good characteristics Joel put in his design.
I enjoy these both mounts quite much and I’m thankful to Jonyk1996 for publishing his design.
I publish this remix in hope someone else has use of it.
Please be aware: MARS 4 DLP-Version seems to have different rail and this design may not fit to it!
