When you mount the stand upside down like this, it wants to slide right off, of course. But, fortunately the fine folks at Mosaic added a hole on each side of the back of the Palette 2. So, I added a matching hole to the stand. I used an M3x8 screw on each side, which is perfectly tight for the holes. I would advise only using screws of 6mm or 8mm--not any longer for fear of hitting something inside.

Finally, if you like, you can take the rubber feet from the stock stand and use them on this one.

Parts Required:

2 - M3 6mm or 8mm screws

Print Settings

• Rafts: No

• Supports: Yes

• Resolution: .2

• Infill: 60% 3D Honeycomb

• Filament color: Black

• Filament material: PETG

• Notes:

  I used 3 perimeters with 60% infill using the 3d Honeycomb infill setting. I wanted to make sure the stand is filled in fairly well for decent strength.

How I Designed This

I took the stock stand STL file into Fusion 360. I cleaned up the mesh to merge many of the faces. I split the bracket from the bottom legs of the stand. I rotated the bracket backwards and then re-created the legs.

I am not a math whiz. I would have liked to be able to include in the parameters the ability to change the leg length such that it would automatically recalculate the angles, but I couldn't figure out the math. (I'm not only new to Fusion 360, but I have forgotten all my geometry.) What I DID do, however, is create a parameter called "LegAngle". This parameter allows you to automatically adjust the angle of the legs. I'm sure there is a better way to calculate those things, but it does work. When you change the LegAngle, it will automatically adjust the entire bracket. So, you can set the angle as you wish.

For me, I found that the angle of 25ª works best. Any steeper and I felt like the Palette 2 may tip forward accidentally. And, I wanted to have a decent amount of access to the PTFE tube going to the printer.

As mentioned above, I added two holes to the bracket so that you can use screws to keep the bracket in place.

I'm including the Fusion 360 file so you can modify it to suit your needs.
