IKEA LEDBERG Z-Braces Clip for LED light strips

thingiverse

I recently scored an amazing deal on 8mm x 10mm x 10" LED 3-part light strips from IKEA, specifically the LEDBERG model, for just $12 at my local store - a true clearance sale find. To attach these side strips to the common Z-Braces mod, I used clips that allowed me to mount them securely to the vertical threaded rods. For maximum hold, I tightened the clips as much as possible, which also led me to decide on printing them in ABS for added flexibility over PLA. Given the rigidity of PLA, I assumed it would not be able to flex around the threaded rod effectively. To separate the three strips into flexible lengths, I utilized a design found on https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:121247. Initially, I also employed this top strip mount: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:996974; however, I no longer recommend it due to its tendency to obstruct extruder movement at the top end of printing, resulting in undesirable outcomes - truly bad things.
