# eScooter Hardware ## PLEASE READ THIS GUIDE BEFORE YOU START PRINTING ANYTHING There are 2 variations of this mounting assembly which will be referred to as version A and version B throughout this guide. We recommend using version A unless you are having trouble with the dovetail joints (the parts that slide tightly together). ## Version A Version A consists of 4 parts: * holder.STL * * (includes 2 parts) holder.STL should be printed face down as below. Be sure to **use** support material as this will certainly fail without. This part will most likely be very difficult to remove from the bed of the printer due to its high surface area. ![holder.STL orientation](images/holder_orientation.png) Once everything is assembled, a square of velcro can be placed in the top of this part where the PCB rests. PCB fit is shown below. ![PCB fit inside holder.STL](images/pcb_fit3.png) blah.stl blah.STL produces 2 usable parts but actually has 4 separate parts as far as CURA (or any other STL viewer/slicer) is concerned. They must be printed in the following orientation and **no** support material should be used. ## Version B Version B consists of 3 parts: * holder3.STL (refer to version A) * arm3.STL * clamp.STL holder.STL should be made exactly as in version A. arm.STL should be printed in the following orientation to minimize the risk of layer delamination causing catastrauphic failure in the clamping system. Also, be sure to **use** support material or the print will be likely to fail. ![arm.STL orientation](images/arm_orientation.png) clamp.STL should be printed in the following orientation for the same reasons as arm.STL. Support material is **not needed** for this print. ![clamp.STL orientation](images/clamp_orientation.png)
