Which is more concerning, asthetics or subtle weakening?The air/vacuum is a pretty neat trick...
Are there any concerns with weakening the structure by drilling holes in the halo or side tubes?
Care to share the STL or STEP for that clip?I drew these up and printed them and they work great! It doesn't hide the wires but looks much better than just zip ties.
I'm planning on putting the holes in the halo on the bottom to reduce the likelihood of anything getting in it.While I have to agree you probably won’t weaken it all that much I wonder if water getting in and rusting would be an issue.
That's a good idea.Run the wires then a small dab of silicon to seal the hole...
When I open this STL file in my slicer, it shows up SUPER small (1mm). If others have run into this, what did you scale it up to?This is the STL for the wire clip. It is for the 1.25" tubes. I can redraw this for anyone wanting it for a different size or it can be scaled.
It actually snaps in place really well.
Change your units of measure and it should be sized appropriately.When I open this STL file in my slicer, it shows up SUPER small (1mm). If others have run into this, what did you scale it up to?
