DISCLAIMER: Use at your own risk. The clearance between the aperture arm and the body of the S50 is very tight. Even making these parts as thin as I possibly could there is still a little contact with the base of the housing during a final movement of the arm in a downward position.
BACKGROUND: Although it is not technically a remix of thing https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6518469, it did inspire me. I have printed that model and it is a great model so I felt the original designer should be credited. The dew shield with that model made me think of the horror stories of people having the arm of the S50 close with that dew shield in place and the grinding the motor made. That was the basis of the beginning of this design. I wanted to have a dew shield that would 'break away' without damaging the S50 if the arm did close due to power or plan completion.
DESIGN CRITERIA: I decided I wanted to make a base that stayed in the S50 aperture and I wanted to be able to put the dew
