Tiko Motor Weight mount

A Tiko Motor Anti Backlash weight mod.

Based on the ideas of Pratyeka and his original mod https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2076518

I wanted to add 85grams or 3 Ounces of weight to each motor using off the shelf fishing weights, because I am cheap!

I bought these weights: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QUQR94/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

$3.42 for 5 weights.

There are 2 parts.

(1) is the bracket used to hold the weights after they are cut in half

(2) is the holder used to make cutting the weights in half easier.

I cut the weights using a simple metal cutting hack saw, it was easy, I held the weight in the holder in a vise. It seemed to work quite well.

I simply friction fit the weights on the posts and the bracket on the motors. But come hot melt glue would probably be a good idea.
