20x20 Extrusion Mount & Tool/BuildPlate Holders by JerryBuurrr

I needed an easy and universal way to mount tools to the outside of my enclosure for my printer. I also didn't want to deal with the permanence of drilled holes for each individual holder should I decide to move the tools around, so I made a bracket for a 20mmx20mm aluminum extrusion I had left over and used some M3 T-nuts to mount various tool/buildplate holders to it.
Both buildplate holders are adjustable, although they are designed around a 235x235mm size plate. the model can be stretched if you need them deeper for an excessively large plate. When printing the buildplate holders, simply to flip the model in your slicer to print the opposite side.
The regular buildplate holder is ~4mm wide internally and should hold 3 wham-bam spring sheets with a bit of play for pulling them out. The Large holder is designed to accommodate a ~4mm glass plate in addition to the other 3 sheets.
The glue stick holder is designed to fit a large ~30mm diameter stick. The Chisel/Flush-cutter holder fits the Ender-style cutter and the chisel (which I recommend) that can be found here: https://www.homedepot.com/p/TEKTON-1-2-in-Wood-Chisel-67553/205575812
