Cordless Drill Storage Mounts

thingiverse

Update: Added F3D files for the batteries. Update: Added battery racks for M12 batteries. These holders are specifically designed for Milwaukee's cordless tools, and I have a collection of M12-based power tools scattered throughout my workshop. This keeps them organized in one place and allows me to store them with bits still in the chucks - perfect for the screwdriver. I designed these racks in Fusion 360 after researching various designs online. They are incredibly strong when printed with an impact-resistant filament like PETG, but it's essential to use enough perimeters to achieve a wall thickness of at least 1.5-2.0 mm and infill of 20% or more. If they break, simply increase the perimeters and infill and reprint. Supports are required when printing as shown in the pictures, so I recommend printing with the base of the cylinder on your build plate to maintain their strength. This way, the hoop strength of the layers will prevent them from breaking. To assemble these racks, you'll need #6 or 3.5 mm diameter drywall screws. Advantages: * Leave the bit in while stored * Faces handle outward and are angled down for an easy grab * Locks the drill from pivoting, keeping it straight out * Very strong when printed with PETG Note: The STL files I've provided are newer and have been cleaned up slightly, with lower angles to the holes for easier installation. These battery racks support drills, and each model number is written on the side of the drill. I've also included pictures of my own drills to demonstrate how the shape can vary even if the model number remains the same. Supported models include: * M12 FUEL 1/2" Drill Driver Model 2403-20 * M12 Screwdriver Model 2401-20 * M12 3/8" Drill Driver Model 2407-20 * M12 Right Angle Impact Driver Model 2467-20 * M12 Model 2462-20 (Contributed by a follower)
