80mm Spindle Mount (V1_LR3)

Mounting parts which use the structure of the core to support the weight of an 80mm water cooled spindle.

Exploded images should help you with construction.

Be sure to pre-thread locking nuts, otherwise they could spin out in place.

Upper mount is currently held in place with zip ties. I highly recommend that you support your spindle and lock down this mount first with the weight of the spindle helping to "hold" this mount in place. Currently the zip ties are the only mechanical fastener for this upper mount. M5 locking nuts can be inserted at any time. You may have to use a tool to hold them in place when you lock them down. Depending on performance, I may rework this in the future, I really do not want to alter the V1 core, and I would like the flexibility to change out the spindle in the future.

Middle and lower mounts use the exiting mounting holes, but because the spindle is wider than this spacing, this needs to be constructed in multiple parts to keep the thing
