ROTOPAX Mount

thingiverse

I needed extra ROTOPAX mounts to hold cans in my shed when they weren't attached to vehicles. The first mount is designed for installation using a few wood screws. The second mount features standard bolt spacing, just like the factory base plate. Five-sixteenths bolts run through the entire base for added strength. A three-eighths bolt secures the handle. The nut is trapped in the base and won't turn. The underside of the handle has two dimples to interact with bumps on the can. Please disregard the poor cutaway view, as it has significantly improved! Printing with high infill is essential since a full can of gas is very heavy. I also revised the model to be held by a wood screw, providing more material between the screw and the surface being fastened to reduce screw pull-through. These mounts are not intended for use on vehicles.
