Additionally, the bolt for securing the phone clamp has been significantly enlarged to ensure a secure hold. To assemble this feature, simply use an M4 40mm bolt paired with a washer and wingnut, which can be easily sourced from local hardware stores at a cost of $1.25. For accurate printing results, users are advised to scale down the models by 90% to achieve their actual size. Unfortunately, the original designs were scaled up tenfold due to an oversight, but scaling them back down during the printing process will still yield satisfactory outcomes. When creating the bed clamp pieces, it is highly recommended to use high-temperature resistant materials such as ABS or alternative options that can withstand intense heat. This precaution will prevent potential damage to the printer bed and ensure smooth operation. UPDATE: Version 2 Introduces Articulating Hinge for Enhanced Print Bed Access This latest revision incorporates an innovative hinge system, allowing users to tilt their phone down onto the print bed with ease. For those looking to mount their phones on the printer bed for capturing timelapse videos or other projects, this feature is a game-changer. To achieve optimal results when printing the phone mounting system, we recommend using honeycomb, rectangular, or gyroid infill at 30% or higher density. This will provide exceptional structural integrity and stability to the printed components. Additionally, printing multiple shells of perimeter (four to five is ideal) will further enhance the overall strength and durability of the finished product.
