If you find it loose, scale "Socket_Clip-Clip.stl" a little larger in slicer software.

The previous vision is only suited to some special filaments like Polymaker PLAplus or PLAmax. If you print it with ESUN PLA+, the release lever will break with a slight touch.
Now I modified the structure to make the lever part stronger than the previous one if you want to print it with ESUN PLA+.
This is a height-adjustable socket clip, I designed it for fixing a socket in my kitchen.
In the beginning, I just want to design something to fix the socket hanging under the cupboard. Then I think could it be something flexible for sockets of different sizes, not only for sockets but other kinds of stuff.
Now I have this. It's firm and easy to set up, and fits from 26mm to 46mm height sockets. If you
want to remove the socket, it has a release lever that can easily work.
There are 2 different bases for flat head and button head screws. Only a little support is needed when printing the base, the clip is totally support-free. 0.1 layer height and 80% infill and "Grid" infill pattern are recommended for the reason of strength.
Polymaker PLAplus or PLAmax are recommended for the filaments.
All the introductions are in the images, enjoy!
I share it free for everyone, If this design could help you, it's welcome to tip me at any price:)
