DanAndersen remixed Arie Kanarie design for this fantastic mount but I'm already using a VESA adapter for the microscope and wanted to use the flexible LED lights with my metal soldering station. I added a few more steps to his Fusion 360/f3d file to extract just the light portion, removed the mounting slot and added some insert holes for 8mm X 8mm round magnets. It sticks solidly to the metal plate.

It's already noted in the main project but you will need to desolder the light wires from the main circuit board to remove them from the original plate. The lights themselves unscrew. Wrap a rag or washcloth around the base before you use pliers to prevent marring the finish. 

This prints on my MK4 without supports and no additional hardware is needed other than the magnets.
