This is a bracket to hold float switches on a rimless aquarium. It could work in other situations where the container doesn't have a large lip. The mount is adjustable allowing you to set the desired switch position. I recommend using nylon hardware for the nut and screw to avoid rust.

I've included OpenSCAD files that allow you to adjust the following characteristics:

**Bracket:**
* length - the longer the bracket the more available range (default 60)
* width - sets the width of the bracket (default 25)
* switchRadius - how large the hole is for the switch (default 5)
* switchArmLength - how far out the switch can be heald (default 30)

**Mount:**
* width - width of the mount (default 25)
* baseLength - how far the back of the mount extends down the back of the tank (default 50)
* glassThickness - thickness of the glass (default 6)
* clipLength - how far the inside of the clip extends down into the tank (I try to keep this out of the water) (default 20)
