Original post:

This is a modification of the original design, with total height reduced from 20 mm to 15 mm for increased printing speed (You print 3 for the time of 2 before). Also the hex openings have been rotated by 30 degrees to eliminate horizontal walls.

Two versions uploaded here, one with hex and one without, so few have requested no hex design.

You can download the ready to go STL file or a STEP if you would like to make easier modifications.

On the side it says "170 mm" as this is the width between the end vertical plates. Later on a narrower versions will come as some find it too wide.
