55 Gallon Aquarium adjustable lightstand on a track

thingiverse

I printed an aquarium light stand. The design intended for easy movement of the light on a track that can move smoothly with the light fixture being sturdy while still allowing movement in its center. Printing at .4mm with a .5m nozzle, I achieved results. Objects oriented during the print job lock into place due to the way lines align with the pivotable support base on the track. As you move it, you may feel rubbing but this provides a secure click that makes for a snug fit. The original design without the track is included as an alternative if desired. Print no_track if you want a stand but prefer not having the track feature. Noting that one of the support columns was .5 mm larger when I printed it, printing both support1 and support2 ensures a snug fit. This light holder was designed to be 2" above the tank but only includes holders of this size. Larger holders could be created by adjusting the support stl's if desired as seen in the no_track picture, although a track would technically make it look better than an untacked setup
