<h3><strong>Mount for 5 3.5 inch drives</strong></h3><p>I wanted to mount 5 Floppy drives on top of each other to experiment with playing MIDI files trough their stepper motors (See: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/Pawe%C5%82Zadro%C5%BCniak">Floppytron</a>). While searching for the mounting hole specs I found that these were the same as hard disk drives. I wanted to remix <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5383205">this Triple Hard Drive Holder,</a> but due to being unable to read Solidworks files on my Mac I recreated my holder from scratch, based on this design.</p><p>After printing, I noticed that the gaps between the drives were larger than necessary for my needs, thus made updated to the model resulting in a 5 FDD Holder. Additionally I made the holes larger in case you have screws with a thicker, unthreaded part like I do. I didn't bother reprinting, thus untested for now.</p><p><strong>5 HDD Holder specs</strong><br>Mounting hole diameter: 3.7mm<br>Distance from resting plate: 6.4mm<br>Distance between holes: 120mm</p><p><strong>5 FDD Holder specs</strong><br>Mounting hole diameter: 4.5mm<br>Distance from resting plate: 4.4mm<br>Distance between holes: 115mm</p>
