chippwalters Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Got a bit of time on my hands and decided to finish off the BMLED mount. Here's where I am. I need to tweak the mounting screw and I'm done. Then I'll pick a better set of colors than orange! Note the pic where it's flipped up (thanks Victoly for the suggestion!).

victoly Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 well done chipp! i assume my royalty check is in the mail, i won't cash it until you say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chippwalters Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Even better, I'll bring you some electric green GSP which I'm sure you'll like. It's pretty much taking over my tank and killing everything it touches, but it's so very PRETTY! Let's call it an 'advance.' 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Outstanding ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chippwalters Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 OK, I think I'm finally finished. I've broken it down into 3 prints, and the accent color (yellow) is the 3rd print. I'm now testing it out to make sure it's sturdy enough-- I have it hanging on an empty tank for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subsea Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 With bright colors like that, it looks like Mardi Gras. Merry Christmas, Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceastman Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 How big of a fixture will it hold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SovangW Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Are these for sale? I am very very interested in buying one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madsalt Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 wow these look awesome. what are the odds you could design something that would hold longer fixtures, or multiple fixtures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chippwalters Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 I've been testing this fixture out for a couple months and it's working very well. I just took a new job so I'm going to have to wait till things settle down a bit before I can print out anymore. Two of these should build a hold a long fixture without any problems. Providing for multiple fixtures in a cantilever design is probably not something that can work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmvanness Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Ooh. I'd love a pair of these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subsea Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 My brother Chipp, Have you come up for breath from the new job? If so, I would be interested in a holder for a 1' BML stick. Perhaps not as bright as the orange. There fixture is silver/grey. Black would match the tank trim. Laissez la bonne temps roulee, Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
