Hello everyone, is there anyone here could make Apex Autofeeder Bracket for Eurostyle brace. The bracket will fit up to a 3/4" thick brace ? I'm Looking to fit on this tank brace 3/4" thick. Thanks

I could make you something to slip on to the brace and then attach the feeder like normal.

Very nice would it be able to secure on the brace with plastic screws?

I've never had a lot of luck with threads but I'll give it a go. I'll mock up something and see how it comes out.

Anyone can make this bracket ?

Not quite sure exactly what you are asking for. You want a clip like thing that will fit over the 3/4" thick euro brace and the autofeeder will hook to that so it sits on top of the brace?

Can you draw up a little sketch?

Yes, that is correct and 2 little screws to secure the clip sit on the brace so that won't fall down to the water. Thanks

Hmm well I have an autofeeder on my tank. I could probably figure something out. I would have to remove mine... it's secured upside down in my light hood. lol

Not sure why you want screws if the clip wraps around the bracing from top to bottom. The clip portion could be made to fit snugly and put tension on the brace to hold it in place.

Red version w black screws. I am tweaking the printing a bit and trying a different support structure for the one side and trying a print with holes printed. Turns out I am not very good at drilling straight holes by hand LOL

 

[Reef-Tank]
