Table Clamp Swivel Joint for LCD Case by ngoconwood

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

So I really like the case that aaronroma made (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2067529) but I wanted the screen to be on the edge of the table. I used the free stand but it kept sliding everywhere so I designed a table clamp for it with a swivel for the LCD. The swivel does not allow the LCD to lie flat against the edge of the table, but it gives me some adjustments to see the screen whether I'm standing or sitting.
Materials:
4 - M5x10 bolts
2 - split washers
2 - washers
1 - M5 tap and corresponding drill bit if tap seems too tight (4 places)
It will clamp to the edge of the table if the table is ~22 mm thick or less. You'll need to tap the holes on the table mount for 4 M5 bolts (2 for the table and 2 for the display joint). I taped a couple pieces of tape to where the bolts would meet the table to prevent damage. To mount the display joint to the table mount, you'll need 2 M5 bolts, 2 split washers, and 2 washers. The split washer allows you to adjust the tension so that when you swivel the display, it stays in place. You'll need the normal washers to prevent the split washer from digging into the plastic and unscrewing your bolt.
