Root 3 Lite - drag knife mount

This is a spring loaded mount I designed in order to use my cnc machine as a 2D cutter. It is specifically designed to fit perfectly on the Root 3 Lite cnc, but you can easily edit the file lock_10mm.stl and use it for any generic 52mm spindle clamp. I'm not sure if it fits the Roland drag knife but I suppose it should if it has the same diameter of Graphtec CB09 drag knives.
Mind that, this tool REQUIRES you to use a base plate at least 1cm thick. If you don't want to use a base plate, cut the rods at least 10mm longer than I did but be warned that, by doing so, you are reducing the Z travel distance as well as the overall rigidity of the tool. You choose. I am using a base plate anyway for doing everything because I don't want to damage the wasteboard.
Of course I also included the fusion360 source file in case you want to edit the components, even though I can't guarantee it's fully parametric and without issues because I just started learning how to use the software. Sorry! It's still better than editing STL files anyway...
