designed a parametric clamp stabilizer plate so my cat perch stops shifting around [OpenSCAD]
Have a cat perch that clamps to my desk and the clamp disk kept creeping and rotating over time. Designed a plate to fix it mechanically:
It mounts to the underside of the desk and the clamp disk drops into a deep recessed pocket, so the disk is fully captured and can't shift or spin
Small clearance on the pocket so it seats easily but stays put
4 countersunk screw holes in the corners to attach it to the underside of the desk
Fully parametric, just plug in your clamp's disk diameter and thickness and it builds around it
Currently tuned for a 35mm disk on a 120x120mm plate but the whole thing regenerates from a handful of numbers at the top.
Would this be useful for other desk clamps too? Mic arms, monitor mounts, etc. Happy to share the file once I've done a proper test fit.
