Looks great, glad you liked it! Would you be OK with me using one of your pics of it installed in the truck on my listings? I haven't installed this version in my truck to take pics, lol.
Heck yeah, glad you like it. Post pics when you get it installed!
Curious to see how that low profile mount works. Wondering if I need to switch to M4 screws for wider compatibility. Some of the Arkon stuff I tried seemed to be designed for M4 or #8 screws. Doesn't seem to be consistency...
You'll be in it for anywhere from $100 to $250 for the rotary shifter itself depending on where you get it and used vs new. eBay can be hit or miss, some buy directly from dealers.
List of compatible part numbers you can search...
Ah, got it! I was ultimately hoping to let people buy off the shelf stuff so I wouldn't need to add another part to make, but until I make a version with M4s I don't think that's happening.
Give me a few days to dial it in, I'll mail you an AMPS to Dual T plate that fits. I have something...
Was there something specific you wanted to see? I've got to burn through some pieces I made ahead of time, but I could keep it in mind for a new design.
Hey, thanks for the order!
I ran into an issue with the Arkon items that I posted. The Dual T-Tab plate screws in fine, but it seems to be designed for M4 or #10 screws. Wasn't clear on the website and doesn't seem to be a consensus between vendors on what everyone uses.
The counterbore...
Is it something you can return for a 240V tool?
There are ways to do it but depending on what you're trying to convert it could get interesting. If it's just a motor that operates the tool you can get a VFD (variable frequency drive) to do the conversion. There are some sketchier ways to do...
Yeah, I took the time to make something, that at least I thought, was distinct enough not to be considered a copy. Some shops were selling the freely available models out there.
100% agree with you on appreciating their work and options. They didn't align with exactly what I wanted in...
Well, looks like Manion went the nuclear route and DMCA'd everyone on Etsy selling any Lightning rotary mount for infringing on intellectual property.
If anyone wants one of mine with the cupholder, DM me and we can work something out. I still have 4 or 5.
Not sure if I'll challenge it or not.
So I forgot to circle back to this. I did clean the model up a bit, pushed the rear wall of the bin back a bit for a little more room under the mount. I put a couple up on my shop that will include the 17mm ball mount. https://polymerbuilt.etsy.com
I have an AMPS to Dual-T and a Dual-T to...
Hey, thanks for the order. It'll be in the mail tomorrow. I just got a 2nd printer to try to stay ahead. Not as popular as Manion, but I'm trying to keep on top of things.
Working on a version that doesn't have a cupholder but an AMPS mount so that people can install ball mounts or Dual-T...
You're 100% right about blocking the work surface. As it sits in my model right now, the ball on the mount is just proud of the top surface, but below the actual trim level on the truck. The work surface would fold down no problem with nothing attached. Doesn't look like enough clearance with...
Hey all, working on a new option. Instead of the cupholder, going to a rectangular cubby but adding mounting holes for standard AMPS style mounts. I've seen people on Reddit, Facebook and here want phone charging options. I think this will work nice.
A 17mm ball mount can be purchased (I'm...
Thanks, appreciate it!
I'm using an Elegoo Centauri Carbon - the build volume isn't big enough to print flat, but I can print it at a 45 degree angle. I made some features on the model so that it would sit flat and the support would have some good anchor points.
