Harbor Freight Magnetic Tool Holder Wall Mount

prusaprinters

<p>I picked up a magnetic tool bar from Harbor Freight <a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/18-in-magnetic-tool-holder-60433.html">(item # 60433)</a> and was disappointed that the mounting holes were not 16" on center so I could mount it securely to my wall studs. Sure, I could use wall anchors, but what fun is that when you have a 3D printer?!</p> <p>A pair of these simple wall mounts, when spaced 16" apart, will allow you to mount the magnetic bar using 5mm x 12mm or 3/16" x 1/2" machine screws. I also modeled in a slot for a standard cable tie so you can secure them if you're not placing these 16" apart.</p> <p>An unplanned bonus is that the 1/2" standoff from the wall give me space to hang some items that aren't magnetic or are too heavy.</p> <p>These print pretty quickly (~ 30 minutes each) and work fine with a .3 layer height.</p> <p>Fusion 360 source file included if you'd like to tweak this for your own needs.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>LayerFused x301</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>.3 layer height</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20% Gyroid</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> Any PLA <p>Any</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>The wall mount hole and chamfer are designed to work well with standard drywall screws.
