What material did he use? Some particular materials like to warp and/or shrink in heated environments, so I'm not sure how it'll react in the bay

Sound good, a recommendation I would give is to print at 100% infill, since that'll help against thermal deformation, and maybe anneal it for better performance (will shrink a bit if annealed, so the model might have to be scaled up a tiny bit)
Otherwise, that looks like a pretty cool project and definitely want to see the progress of it

That’s awesome! Mind grabbing a few more wide angle pics of the installation? Kinda hard to make out how it’s done.
looking forward to the file drop!

For sure!

Any update on this @SooopraSD? Again, I'd gladly pay you for access to the CAD file and would agree not to share it in any capacity (with the minor exception of the following). I have a friend with a CNC machine and several large chunks of aluminium. He said he'd be happy to carve some of it up as long as the component is CNC-able, which from the pictures it appears to be. If you don't want to that's all good, just let me know so I can work on something more permanent for myself. Don't want to reinvent the wheel.
