Michael's original thing was already amazingly well-made and super-strong, but after my mod https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4758855 made the original so much stronger, I did the same thing here so that the weight of the mount is resting on the two bars I've added in as well as the bolts. It fitted brilliantly. I also removed the cable-mounts as I didn't need them, couldn't fit wires into them and they made it harder to print! I used NetFabb to remove the cable supports, created my bars in Solidworks and then combined them in MeshMixer. My original plan was to import into Solidworks and do it all in there - but the original model was so complex it couldn't cope! :-) I printed in PETG in the same orientation as Michael recommended for his thing. It seems counter-intuitive as it needs lots of high support - but you get the best airflow that way. See my make for more and better photos. I also use this board cover https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5404424 and this awesome part-cooling mount/duct https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5406079
