Clean up your Home Lab! This saddle mount allows you to securely place your Intel NUC (6th Gen) directly on top of your QNAP TS-251+ NAS. The design features a "saddle" that clips onto the NAS, keeping the NUC stable without blocking necessary ventilation.

Key Features:

Low Profile: The connection block between the NAS and the NUC has been reduced to the absolute minimum (approx. 3mm) to keep the stack as compact as possible.

Secure Fit: Prevents the NUC from sliding off the NAS due to vibration or cables.

Airflow: Includes cutouts on the bottom and sides to prevent heat buildup between the devices.

Customizable: The included .scad file allows you to adjust dimensions if you have a different NAS width or NUC generation.

Compatibility:

NAS: Designed for QNAP TS-251+ (approx. 102mm width). Should fit other 2-Bay QNAP models with the same chassis dimensions.

PC: Designed for Intel NUC 6th Gen (approx. 115 x 111 mm).

Printing Instructions:

Supports: Required. Depending on your chosen orientation (upright vs. upside down), you will need supports for the saddle arch or the cable/ventilation cutouts.

Material: PETG is highly recommended. Since both the NUC and the NAS generate heat, standard PLA might deform under load. If you use PLA, ensure it is high-temp resistant (like Hyper-PLA) and monitor it.

Infill: 20-30% (e.g., Gyroid) for stability.

Perimeters: 3 walls recommended for stiffness.

Included Files:

.stl: Pre-sliced for QNAP TS-251+ & NUC 6th Gen.

.scad: OpenSCAD source code for customization.
