Having a monstertech mount and low funds, I decided to design my own mousepad mounts. It is made to be rigid and quickly disassembled to be stored away.

The assembly is made, for each side, from 4 parts :

  • A T slot rail,
  • A “fixer” which will be attached to the MT desk mount by squeezing the aluminium profile
  • The bracket, which slides into the previous part with a dovetail joint
  • The plate, which is screwed onto the bracket
  • Several heat set inserts and corresponding screws.

My first attempt required an addition gasket because the T slot rail/"fixer" assembly was not squeezing the extrusion hard enough. This has been modified and should not happen now. But I left it in cas you need it.

Structural parts were printed in PLA, 4 walls, 20% infill.

Plate and gasket were printed in PETG 15% infill with default slicer parameters.

All parts were printed on Bambu Lab A1.

I used M3 heat set insert and screws because That is what I had lying around, but feel free to use anything that fit your needs.

f3d file is provided in case you want to remix or modify it for yourself.

I used @LCSteve 's 8040 aluminium extrusion sketchas a starting point. https://www.printables.com/model/264738-8040-aluminum-extrusion

This is, by no means, a replacement for the real thing, but it should do the trick nontheless.
