Beefy Ender 3 BMG Mount

I really liked the mount that bytespyder created, but it had one problem: no matter how I printed it, I snapped the mount in two when trying to change filament. I just don't think the sides of the mount are strong enough for how ham-fisted I am!

I beefed up the sides of the mount and elongated the supports, basically running all the way to the end of the mount.

Notes:

Recommend using PETG or ABS for better strength/layer adhesion. A high infill is recommended.

How I Designed This

I took the original STL and modified it in TinkerCAD. My skills aren't that great, so I basically built up my model using extruded primitives. rnrnYou can check it out here: rnrnhttps://www.tinkercad.com/things/1GGsWUO6D3r-beefy-ender-3-bmg-mount
