Labinator is cool and all, but what good is that if you can’t show it off? These are very simple legs that attach to the edge of the mounting board, tilt it back 10 degress, and hold the lab upright on its “side”.
The design was not especially difficult to whip up since I already had perfect dimensions from the platform corner legs. The main consideration was figuring out what a good angle would be that keeps Labinator upright enough to be seen, but doesn’t risk making it fall forward. I decided that it’d be stable enough if the length of the support extends twice the distance that the top of the board would sit at. Using the trigonometry I hadn’t used since college, it was easy enough to figure up.
Given the size of these supports, amount of infill needed to be robust enough to support the weight of the lab, and overall time to print it, I didn’t run any prototypes. The design was spot on, so that was great… but the print of the second leg failed about 30 minutes before finishing. Oh well! I’m not going to wait another day just for the unseen edge of the bracket to look good!
