Mounting hole distance: 108mm

Printing

Print on the high side of your printing temperature range for best layer adhision to print a strong handle.

Material

Print in PLA or ABS to use ironing on the top surface for best quality. PETG and ironing doesn't work well. This only works with the slots for the nuts facing the print bed!

Layer height

Use variable layer height to let the slicer (SuperSlicer, PrusaSlicer) choose a lower layer height on the curves (~0.1mm) and higher layer height on the straight walls (0.3mm). Otherwise 0.2mm is fine.

Perimeters & Infill

I recommend at least 3 perimeters, 4 perimeters for heavy loads. Infill around 20%.

CAD

FreeCAD file added, uses sketches for easy custumization. Change dimensions, chamfer (size/type), mounting holes etc. have fun :)
