Recently bought a flashlight, but it was an odd size so You couldn't find a mount for it anywhere on the Web? Here is Your solution! Download and adjust the parameters to suit Your flashlight!

To mount a laser pointer or anything with a diameter between 9.17668196 and 13.89105972 mm use the alternative laser mount .f3d file as well as shorter cap bolts*.

Model contains:

  • Body - main body that mounts to the picatinny rail with a bolt

  • Cap - clamps the flashlight to the body with 4 bolts and 4 nuts

  • Claw - clamps body to the picatinny rail with 

  • Knob - tightens the claw with an inserted nut

  • Knob s - a lower profile variant of the regular knob to be used with 5mm shorter mounting bolt**

How to use

  1. Download the .f3d file

  2. Open in Fusion

  3. Select Modify -> Change Parameters

  4. Modify parameters to suit

    1. Flashlight_Body_Diameter - measure your flashlight's body diameter with a pair of calipers, do take into account that when converting to mesh radiuses seem to become smaller

    2. Minimum_Dimension - to match to your printer/printer nozzle

    3. Offset - modify this if the mount wiggles side to side

    4. Lug_Offset - adjust this if the mount wiggles forward and back (between the rail lugs)

  5. Apply and press 'OK'

  6. Export and print

                                                           Recommended orientation for printing

Hardware required

You can adjust the model to suit other hardware, but I recommend:

  • M4x40 hex bolt (DIN 933) 1pc   OR   M4x35** hex bolt (DIN 933) 1pc

  • M4 nut (DIN 934) 1pc

            For the most uniform clamping - pick out a nut that has the least woble when paired with the knob

  • M3x10 bolt (DIN 912) 4pcs   OR   M3x8* bolt (DIN 912) 4pcs

  • M3 nut (DIN 934) 4pcs
