Wire Rack Hanging GPU Mount for Crypto Mining by Slow_Jams

I needed a better way to manage my cards for some hobby mining. I had a wire shelf with a printer on top and decided this was the easiest option.
You may need to modify for your specific wire rack!! Modeled in Onshape, I did this fast and dirty so changing a dimension may (probably) will blow it up so double check :P
You can find the model in OnShape just search - Wire Rack Hanging GPU Mount for Crypto Mining
My wire rack's dimensions - Wire = 2.5mm Spacing = 28.25mm & 27.25mm alternating
To check fit, print the first few layers, cancel the print and test. Wire diameter is important to get that snap when clipping it on to the shelf.
This works for gpus that require 2 slots. The total bracket width is more than the card itself, biased towards the fans. This allows for consistent gap between the cards for so i could be confident in airflow.
There is a hole on one side for melting in a threaded bushing.
The bushing I chose is from menards sku: 2029089 6-32 Hex drive for wood inserts. Put it on your allen wrench, small amount heat with a lighter and twist it in. Then hold it still until cool.
I did 30% infill, which is probably overkill and I like my walls to be 3 layers. Since there is an insert at LEAST make the hole higher density. Cards are hard to come by, don't be stingy here.
