ETHOS Folding Wall Rack Clamp Pads

thingiverse

This is a foot pad for the ETHOS Folding Wall Rack. Because I was using stall mats AND I have a baseboard running across my garage, I had to mount my stringers higher than the instructions recommended. And to complicate things my garage slab has a slight slope so I needed something for the feet to rest on. At first I was using pieces of wood but that looked tacky. I took this as a challenge to improve my Fusion 360 skills and came up with a set of feet that were as aesthetically pleasing as they were functional. Inspired by the Apollo lander! The top is recessed so the stock feet slips right in. The center is hollow and a perfect fit to hang on the metal pegs. Printed as is gave me a tight fit on my first print. I scaled the scale up +1% to give a more perfect fit for my rig. Everyone's right is slightly different so measure and print accordingly. This gives you 20mm of added height. You can and should scale this on the vertical plane to fit your needs. I used 100% Infill for the center (using support blockers) and 50% for the outer perimeter. But if you aren't putting a lot of plates on your rack then you can probably get away with 50% throughout.
