After hacking the giant tail assembly on my Honda dual-sport, the license plate was just kinda dangling out there. It seemed ok with that for a while, then it started fatiguing and cracking from the stress of holding itself up. I was going to try to stiffen it with some thin aluminum, but I didn’t have any handy, and tractor supply is almost 15 minutes each way. So, instead, I drew this up in maybe 30 minutes, then it printed for an hour, then I figured out it wouldn’t quite fit, I redesigned it, printed it again, and bolted it up.
As with most of my projects, I saved negative time. But damn, is it satisfying sitting at the desk with a pair of calipers to figure out what size it needs to be, drawing it up in absolutely the least efficient manner possible, and then printing out exactly what you told it to do. It’s satisfying—you guys should start messing around in OnShape and order a printer.
