A secure, threaded container for storing and protecting Smallest telescope's removable secondary mirror assembly. This model is designed to hold the mirror glued to its support. The container features a custom-shaped recess that perfectly cradles the support and an option to add a glued-in metal washer for magnetic attachment, preventing the delicate mirror from contacting the plastic walls.

The attached FreeCAD source file (.FCStd) allows full customization. Using the parameters in the variable set (VarSet), you can adjust the container's dimensions to fit your specific mirror size, as well as fine-tune the thread tolerance for a perfect fit.

Recommended Print Settings:

  • Nozzle: 0.6 mm

  • Layer Height: 0.18 mm (recommended for precise threads)

  • Wall Generator: Arachne

  • Material: PETG

  • Mode: Precise Z-height

Important Notes:

  • The provided .STL files are preset for a 32mm secondary mirror. For any other size, adjusting the parameters in the included FreeCAD file is necessary.

  • The photo shows a sample printed with the settings listed above.

  • For a magnetic hold, glue a steel washer into the designated slot on the container's base.
