Summary

Cracked a retainer for the bolts that hold the lid on the Fluval FX5 canister filter, so I designed a similar retainer. It is not perfect, but it works fine if you do not over-torque the bolts. It should fit perfect at a 100% scale, however I have a bit of an over-extrusion problem at the moment, so it worked for me at 103 and 104% scale.

Did 100% infill (lots of stress on the part),

Printed it laying down longways with a brim so layers are perpendicular to the bolt to increase strength,

Hope this helps you! Post your make please!
