Deluge Light Mount

3

Hi folks, I wanted to share a small contribution to this incredible instrument. I purchased this light hoping it would function out of the box but the mounts didn't work well in concert with the Deluge so I designed a new one. I hope it fills a gap for anyone looking for something like this.

The details reposted here from Thingiverse are:

This mount uses a small rare earth magnet to attach to the Deluge in a couple of configurations. Either from the top edge or the side. It also allows for a side mount to facilitate easy tranport and keep the light handy when not in use.

Uses the following items:

https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/supplies/adhesives/tape/32184-super-high-friction-tape?item=99K3401 - A small amount is used over the magnet once it is glued into its hole to add some stability to the mount.
It works a treat!

Print with the D=<3 up with supports. I used 15mm with 20% infill and it turned out perfect!

    Brilliant! I'm looking to (non-destructively) mod the deluge as hard as I can, and this is an excellent addition to the list. Cheers!
