Tarp Holder For Rain Gutter
2002 Ford Transit
Description
This is a bracket for attaching a tarp or awning to the rain gutter of a car or camper van. The holder consists of two parts. A strip which is placed in the gutter and a C-shaped counterpart which presses the strip tight. This a remix from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4156741 because the gutter of my Ford Transit MK6 is wider than the van in the original one. See attached measures vs the original ones. **Material list for a bracket:** 3D printing: 1x strip for rain gutter 1x C-shaped counterpart Please make sure to print the C-shaped counterpart upright. This increases the stability, because the individual printing layers are perpendicular to the later mechanical load. Screws: 2x M5 x 18 mm 1x M5 x 45 mm (even longer screws are possible) 2x washer, M3 1x washer, M5 3x nut, M5 **Note:** I've included a Test piece which is just a small part so you can check if the size fits.
Print Instructions
Standard FDM printing settings: - Layer height: 0.2mm - Infill: 70% - Supports: As needed
