This is a little clamp I designed to be able to clamp stuff securely to a cargo barrier in a car.

The idea is to make a clamp that clamps to 2 wires of the mesh secured by 2 screws and embedded nuts. You could just use these same two screws as mounting points or optionally I have added a third hole for a centre bolt to go through.

The SCAD file is included for customisation. I have added all the customisable values to the top of the file for ease of use.
Pretty much every aspect can be customised.
Finally the obligatory safety point. Cargo barriers are installed to keep the
