Makita LXT 18V Battery Mount

If you've ever wanted to utilize those Makita LXT 18V batteries, you're going to need a reliable and clean method for accessing the battery terminals. This 3D print delivers a sturdy plastic plate that securely attaches to the battery, snapping into place just like a Makita power tool. The electrical terminal connections are replicated using an authentic Makita spare part (643852-2), firmly glued in position. You will need to source these separately, but they're relatively affordable for a genuine Makita component. The 3D Makita LXT 18V Battery Mount is designed to perfectly fit the Makita 643852-2 Battery Terminal spare part, secured permanently with epoxy resin glue. I've now developed several projects based on this design, adjusting the basic width and length to accommodate a custom 3D printed box cover for specific projects. For added strength and stability, I use PETG for my 3D prints. My print is crafted from PETG 1.75mm 3DFillies black filament, featuring a 0.2mm layer height and 35% infill on a PRUSA I3 MK3S printer. I hope this print proves to be useful as well. Look out for more of my 3D prints designed specifically for Makita battery projects and feel free to share your thoughts. Updates: Version F- Modified the two deeper screw mounting holes, ensuring that all mounting holes require identical screw lengths.
