This is made to thread a 3/4'' LocLine adapter (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001EHJO1Y/ref=sxts_kp_lp_3?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=81796764025866896&pd_rd_wg=cLp7e&pf_rd_r=TNB63EZMQ1T8FHCTHT86&pf_rd_s=desktop-sx-top-slot&pf_rd_t=301&pd_rd_i=B001EHJO1Y&pd_rd_w=hsKJu&pf_rd_i=locline&pd_rd_r=03c8c700-5787-41e6-98ff-0caebf178a4f&ie=UTF8&qid=1529512298&sr=3)
Adam made his base plate out of Delron and machined it. Since I don't own a lathe I decided to print one!
Main benefits of using this over a metal bulkhead adapter are -
1. Cable trough for routing and no chance of pinching
2. Place for M8 nut in bottom of plate you can thread an M8 rod into. This replaces the loose stiffening rod used in the video to allow it to be mounted in any orientation
3. Cheap! You can get the 3/4'' Conduit Locknuts in the electrical supply of any hardware store
INSTRUCTIONS:
You can either manually pause your print and drop in the lock nut or do a pause command in the script just like you wo
