WS2812b PCB strip mount for a Dragon frame

thingiverse

This is a two-part holder designed specifically for a WS2812(b) LED strip. The strip this holder is tailored for features two 3 mm holes positioned 28 mm apart from one another. A critical component of the design includes a part mounted on the frame, boasting a hole distance of 23 mm with 3 mm holes. This particular holder was crafted to fit the "Dragon" frame but may also accommodate other frames. To assemble this holder, you will need to acquire two M2.5 screws and nuts, preferably paired with suitable nylon washers (as depicted in the accompanying images). These screws are used to secure both the strip to the frame and the frame to the holder itself, with corresponding holes for the nuts conveniently integrated into the design. Given my limited testing experience, I have only successfully employed this holder on TPU materials. However, based on the observed durability benefits, I highly recommend utilizing TPU or other flexible materials for optimal results. A rectangular hole has been incorporated at the back of the frame to facilitate wire soldering. To enhance durability and prevent potential damage, I applied a layer of flexible electronics silicone over the soldered connection following its installation. EDIT: Additional versions have been created, each boasting minor aesthetic differences while retaining identical hole size and distance specifications.
