AMPS pattern cell-phone mount for 2006 Infiniti G35

prusaprinters

<p>This is the base for a cell mount for a 2006 Infiniti G35. It installs without permanent modification in the ashtray. It's very close to a 12V socket in the console, to connect a charger.</p><p>This is just a generic base, designed to accept a mounting plate using the industry-standard <a href="https://www.mountguys.com/the-amps-mounting-pattern/">AMPS 2-hole pattern</a>. &nbsp;Compatible mounts are made by <a href="https://www.quadlockcase.com/collections/quad-lock-360/products/quad-lock-360-base-flat-rectangle">Quad Lock</a>, <a href="https://rammount.com/products/rap-b-347u">RAM Mounts</a>, and probably many others.</p><p>Two #10-32 square nuts (3/8" flats) are embedded inside the print. &nbsp;It will accept #10-32 flat-head machine screws up to 1" long.</p><p>I built up a nice Quad Lock mount on mine, with a wireless charging head on top. Quad Lock stuff is a bit pricey, but it's top-tier.</p><h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print with the mounting surface down. &nbsp;No supports are required.</p><p>The recesses for the embedded nuts use the Maniacal Labs <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8FbHTcB05w">floating-hole hack</a>, which depends on the specific layer height. The model is currently designed for a 0.2mm layer height. &nbsp;If you want to use a different layer height, you'll have to modify the Fusion 360 model (change the <i>LayerHeight</i> user parameter.)</p><p>Insert a pause at the start of the layer that covers over the embedded nut recesses. That's your chance to insert the square nuts during printing. Use a machine screw as a tool to help press the nuts in straight.</p>
