Servo Mount with cable hole
thingiverse
Printing this alone is unusual. Users expect STL models to be combined with another model using software like Openscad or a CAD program, attaching it as a feature to an existing project. That's what people should do - attach this as a component without creating mounts of its kind again. But don't forget to scale it up by 2 percent more than standard! I started working with Christian_Emsbach's awesome servo mount, imported it into Openscad and I added a hole for the power/pwm cable connection. This opening is wide enough for any connector to fit through easily. Additionally, I made the base thicker so that whatever it is attached to benefits from its added stability. Describing this servo model's size isn't easy; however, it fits many standards, which suggests it accommodates numerous uses. The servo sitting in front of me right now is a standard HiTEC HS-311 'standard' servo, and this mount accommodates it without issues. If you want to manipulate the scad script for modification purposes, ensure that Christian_Emsbach's file, servo_mount_v.1.stl, resides in the same directory as yours so the import command works properly without hitches or delays. January 26th update indicates recent modifications to newer versions of these files should improve print results, removing the need for supports. Even if support is wanted for an absolutely perfect finish, I'd say go ahead and do it if you can't manage at higher scale settings with just 102%. For example, HiTEC HS-311 servo came equipped with a protective sleeve that helps keep cables secure - a necessary slot was added into the design so servos could slide in freely. I discovered these modifications tested fine but would not provide an easy fit unless you enlarge by another two percent. It makes perfect sense to opt for the enlarged size since any servo larger won't get lost when placed snugly inside at this particular size. February 29th Update - Using Christian_Emsbach's design successfully led me to its latest practical use, my RC model Open Electromagnet project. Since that project works quite well even though I didn’t bother securing it further in some spots (due partly because glue or screws won't serve such purposes very efficiently), there may be situations where more substantial attachment feels better than having everything sitting snug - maybe especially good for bigger, complex rc models steering system designs. You see the current setup just won't fit correctly for attaching other sorts; fortunately, mounting isn’t as pressing a concern in Open Electromagnet projects and therefore don’t end up looking all wonky with things coming loose because no fasteners were used.
