Introduction: 3D Printed Perfboard Holder

By

Before I made this holder I was using wooden blocks to help me with soldering. That is why I designed my own 3D printed perfboard holder. It's a simple project where I learned a lot of new skills. I learned 3D design with open source CAD program called FreeCAD.

For every part I printed, I attached .gcode file with PLA settings for Ender 3 pro. But you should improve my design.

Supplies

  • Any CAD software - I used FreeCAD
  • Slicer - Cura
  • 3D printer - Ender 3 pro
  • M3 screws and nuts

Step 1: Bottom Plate

This bottom plate has two slots for screw nuts.

It has dimensions of 120mmx120mmx5mm.

Step 4: Holding Plates

The last parts are 2 holding plates which will tighten the perfboard.
