Designed for this light bar (link below), which outputs good lighting for my MK2.5. I designed it so that you can use screw and nuts hardware(#2 machine screws and nut) to fix it to the light bar. This accomplishes 2 things:

  1. Avoid covering up the proximity sensor, which is required to operate the light.
  2. Fix on the light bar tightly to avoid rattle during printing.

The light uses motion control to turn on and off. This allows you to minimize touching the printer frame while printing.

This design was remixed from an existing light bar bracket, where I modify the fixing point to the light bar. I also added another model's low profile frame attachment to the design. Even with the MK 2.5 upgrade, the extruder assembly will not run into the light bar fixture during printing.

Post-Printing

Attach to lights using #2 machine screws and nut. The pack I used in particular was #2-56 x 3/8 in
