MOTU M2 Under Desk Mount

A simple, low-cost, easy-to-print, MOTU M2 Under Desk Mount that uses 3M Command Large Picture Hanging Strips

Print Settings

• Choose your preferred model: Raised or Flat. Use Raised if your table has a 20 mm thick metal bar like mine in the pictures. Otherwise, if your table doesn't have a metal bar, then use Flat. 
• Print two of the mounts as is (front face on the build plate). 0.2 mm layer height recommended for proper adhesion of the Command Strips. 
• Material, infill, perimeters, etc., settings are up to you.

Assembly

1. I recommend getting a fresh, brand-new set of 8x 3M Command Large (15 lb) Picture Hanging Strips. If you had strips laying around for a long while, they have likely “dried out”. Yes, I know the 15 lb strip is probably overkill, and it isn't designed for hanging things other than a vertical wall, but I want to ensure these will never separate from the desk.
2. Clean the top of the mounts and under your desk to ensure there aren't any contaminants like fingerprint oils.
3. Adhere 2 command strips on top of each mount, with the tabs pointing outward/sides of the mount.
4. Grab 2 strips, but do not remove the adhesive backing yet. Connect these strips to the strips on the mount. Repeat for the second mount.
5. Assemble and slide the mounts on the front and back of the M2. Remove the adhesive backing of all strips on each mount.
6. While holding the M2 and the mount together with both your hands, align them under your desk and apply firm pressure for around 30 seconds.
7. Once adhered to your desk, you should be all set. However, according to 3M's instructions, they recommend 1 hour for the adhesive to build, so I prefer to carefully detach the mount and M2 from the adhered strips.

Other Notes

I uploaded .step files of the mounts if you need to remix them for your particular desk.
