Glass bed holders for Solidoodle 2

These plastic holders are designed as an alternative to paper clips or other items used to secure the glass on Solidoodle 2's heated bed. A notable advantage is that these holders stay level with the bed, maximizing printing space and minimizing extruder collision risk. You will need 17x15cm glass pieces for this project. Print four "socket" and four "insert" pieces. Enlarge the holes of each socket slightly so the inserts can slide in. Position the glass on the bed and mark its edges, then glue the sockets at each corner using a high-temperature resistant adhesive. Allow the glue to dry before placing the glass and inserts, ensuring they fit just below the bed and securely hold the glass in place. If necessary, file down the sockets for better fitment. Note that these holders may eventually bend, compromising glass support; consider trying a magnetic mount alternative (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:54297).
