Seed Pixel mounting strip - 3D printed - Published on Thigiverse

Realised overnight that the conduit clips needed an anti-rotation option so back into F360 and test printed... did find out that printing them solid was not a great idea.... to many perimeters from the previous print and i broke one..... ooops. the 16x10 is a tight fit and anyone that plans to print is advised to test print for size.
My printer is printing about 0.2mm under design dimensions and everything is really tight

@AussiePhil, I finalised my design and printed the gutter hooks you’ve provided. They fit nicely and easier to get onto the gutter but aren’t as tight a fit as the ones I have. Both will do the job though. Nice work on the PVC pipe bracket, looks awesome. I’ll share the STL in another post.

I would be super keen on something for a seed matrix, I’m building one at the moment using garden trellis and this would be much easier. This is from Your Pixel Store.

1 to 5 fit and insert with no issues, 6 however is a newer bigger one from 2024 and will need a tweak to the design

1. BTF Lighting 5v 10cm spacing 3-wire

2. Maybe Knowshine 3cm spacing, 5v 3 wire.

These fitted spacing wise very well and easy to insert.

3. GL 12v 10cm 3 wire

5. Know Shine 5v 5cm 4-wire

It was good to see that both 3 and 4 wire seeds fitted.

As i can only add 6 images post continued...............
 
..... continued, the only one that did not fit was the new 4 wire
6. Know shine 5v, 5cm, 4-wire 2024

they are relatively quite larger in bulk than the rest and will need a tweaked design, whilst i would prefer a universal design it may be better to make 2 versions
 
These like a good replacement for my strip on round conduit, but printing 20mtrs+ of the seed mounting in 300mm lengths might take awhile :|
Well done on the 3d designs :)
 
This looks very nice. I would replace my window frames with these. Only problem is I don't think the conduit is available in the US to mount these to.
