heated-bed mirror clip / mount

thingiverse

Effective yet unattractive solution. \nThis iteration draws inspiration from various 3D printer designs and mirror clip adaptations, tailored specifically for Prusai3 - MK2 + Ikea Mirror \nThe holders required are three "mirror clamps" and a single "mirror adjuster" that pushes the mirror into place by gripping all four corners simultaneously. \nInitially hesitant to utilize black metal clips, I discovered an intuitive alternative, \nAdvantages: After thorough testing, it remained functional despite its unsightly appearance, resisting damage and holding fast even when pushed to the limit... The base proved remarkably stable, impervious to movement. However, the driving mechanism – though capable of withstanding heavy use – feels somewhat clumsy due to its generous size. Yet, this design offers flexibility; by modifying the file, users can adapt it for various alternatives \nPrecision measurements are available down to 0.1 mm, making this model compatible with regular MK2 and Ikea mirror configurations. \nThis setup necessitates a minor adjustment to endstops on both X and Y axes to yield optimal printing results; specifically, the reduced clearance brings printing surface depth down to approximately 18.5 \n(Due to file unavailability on Thingiverse at present time, this project has been undertaken – drawing inspiration from an older work I no longer possess... Should the original appear again in my search results, full credit shall be afforded; in any case, minimal design alteration was applied to maintain core integrity.)
