Print of GoPro clip mounting with small 3D Delta while busy with larger Delta parts

I am busy each evening printing all the rest of the motor and slider parts of the new large big brother Delta machine on both the Sumpod and the small Delta, pics and progress will follow, While waiting for a print to complete I designed a replacement GoPro clip mount in Sktechup and then quickly printed it with the small 3D Delta machine. The original part broke a few weeks ago so instead of ordering a new one I decided to make one my cost a few cents verse cost from the supplier for an original close to R200. ABS is also a perfect material as is less brittle and still retains good memory if the flex is not too great. The part worked out perfectly and clips without any chance of unclipping I will upload the design to Thingiverse and Sketckup 3D Warehouse. Skeinforge sliced it with no problem Slic3r struggled with this. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:149740
