🔘I've
designed and printed a selection of parts some of which are intended for use in the transmitter power amplifier I am currently building
for the 472KHz∿/630m wavelength radio 📻 band. So far I've made holders for some
large foil capacitors, mounting clips for toroidal cores and coil formers ➿. Both PETG (grey) & PLA (blue or yellow) plastic filaments were used

| Toroidal core clips, coil formers & capacitor holders |
The
toroidal core clip is for a T150-26 core which has an external diameter of
1.5". The coil fomers are ribbed for a close-spaced winding with 1.6mm
diameter enameled copper wire. One side of the capacitor holder is open
so that the value and voltage rating are visible. Where required, the parts can be panel-mounted using M2.5 nuts and bolts 🔩.
One
benefit is that all dimensions and the style can be customised for a
'tailor-made' solution. I am no longer restricted to using PVC tube or
pipe fixings for example, in only a few sizes bought from the shop.
