Our fire service has recently been issued with Motorola APX6000 portable radios. Unfortunately they weren't supplied with any sort of mount to secure them in our fire trucks.
This design consists of a cavity shaped to accept the radio and a few different types of mounts design around the cavity including a basic cradle and a cradle that fits into a cup holder.
I have also used it to design a cradle that holds two radios and two spare batteries. It fits in the centre console of Isuzu NPS trucks but can be customised to suit other vehicles.
Update: I've modified the console cradle to try and reduce the warping when printing in ABS. It makes it a lot better but you need very good bed adhesion to stop it lifting. The warping forces were so strong in the original design that it de-laminated my Ninja plate.
Update: I've updated the design to fit the larger Impress II batteries.
