Knocked both of these up this weekend. They're obviously somewhat custom for my old and new refugium setups.

First is a A360 refugium light mount which is just a bracket. This mounts over 16" for 1/4in thick. Happy to make some adaptations as well. This is a three part, both legs and the center ring. There are strong dovetails which you smoosh together to get the legs attached. Printed in a mix of ASA (white) and ABS (black).

Second is an A80 refugium mount, but designed to fit between 8020 rail, for my new nano.

This one screws into T nuts (M6) into the 8020. The light hanger has to slide over the rail before attaching, but has a locking connection to not just wobble about. Printed in ASA (white) and ABS (black). This one is pretty custom but may inspirational.

That's really good! :) I have thought about getting in to that 3D printing for a while; it's a scary step to go and buy a printer though! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes: With the amount of printed stuff I have bought off of Etsy, I could easily have bought a printer my self.

Which one are you using?

This is on a Bambu X1C
That would be my go to one. I am close to pulling the trigger. The only close competitor really is the Prusa MK4. I like the enclosed design of the Bambu- and they seem somewhat more user friendly for a new printer!
