Ham Radio Mount Bracket
2011 Dodge Ram 1500
Description
I wanted something custom looking to mount my Yaesu FT7800 in my 2011 Ram 1500. Ivazqueez had the perfect Yaesu mount, and m2oore had the mount that was right on for my truck. I mixed the two up some and created some hinged pieces and viola this is the end result. I still do not have it mounted in my truck. I will get pics uploaded once it is done. I had a hard time with the base printing cleanly, but the one I have printed clean enough to use for now. If anyone comes up with a good way of printing the base without tons of supports I am all ears. Do not use PLA due to the heat that can build up.
Print Instructions
Standard FDM printing settings: - Layer height: 0.2mm - Infill: 70% - Supports: As needed
