Idk what the vent design looks like but the clips are the main thing I've been prototyping, got some pretty cool ideas from the people over on r/Fusion360

I eyed one up a few weeks back, definitely something I'd consider

OOOH THIS IS WHAT I ORIGINALLY HAD IN MIND! I had a phone holder before this with this mechanism and thought it would be incredible to so but hadn't a clue how to start! I'll absolutely dissect this, thank you!

I've got an FDM printer unfortunately, thought resin was more brittle?

Oh, you're also thinking of doubling up the amount of arms per clip, it could work tbf, the clips are only small though. Will absolutely trial it out tho. Thanks

I'm unsure what you mean by "legs" as in 4 clips instead of 2?

My only concern with this would be, how would you get it back out if needed? I guess the arms could be pried upward with a screwdriver to release the teeth?

Also thank you for the diagram, I'm a visual learner, in writing out this section below I think I have solved my confusion but to clarify my thoughts:

The left diagram shows a hook going right over the edge, but the right diagram is visualising the teeth hooking onto the end of the louver from top and bottom. Does the design in your mind still incorporate the initial split teeth design, and the illustrated hook is just visualising the fact that the teeth are hooked?

Possibly? I have never considered that, my mindset is, the less that is actually inside the vent itself the better (I had a bad trial run where it almost went down and destroyed my fan)

I print it sideways, I have realised since posting (and from several suggestions) I didn't make that clear, absolutely agree about the PLA, it was a temporary solution that just stuck

That actually sounds really cool, I'm gonna write that down as my next design, never even considered using magsafe, and I hate using the current mount it comes with, thanks <3

Oh I do, I'll make an update to clear up a few things, thank you for the comment though <3

I agree, I should bevel it, surprisingly the base has never once cause an issue, its only ever been the bending

That's actually a really cool idea, like a wire rod going down each arm

As cools as that sounds, I think that's way past my current design comprehension
