F@R Seat stay and fork hinged rack clamps

The SE Bikes F@R doesn't come with mounts on the frame or fork for racks, so I made these plastic clamps as metal ones are one size fits all but terrible and ruin paint jobs by scratching them plus weigh a lot. The Fork clamp is meant for 35mm diameter forks, while the seat stay is for 20mm diameter frames; however, they might fit other frames too. To give them extra grip I added some Gorilla tape for cushioning and holding power. I printed these in PETG but PLA would work fine as well. Printing at 100% infill is recommended. In the design, I've included supports so you won't need any when slicing it out. However, you'll have to cut out the supports with a utility knife or similar tool and tap out a pivot for a 3mm screw; some sanding might be necessary too for a smooth hinge fit. I added another 35mm design on March 10th that has different offset and a slimmer, sexier look.
