Noble made a 3D model through Shapeways. Here you go: https://www.shapeways.com/product/6UKVEVTGL/mt-widget-base?optionId=60766731 |

Corp Hicks, Did the 3-D printed bracket work for the "pump widget"? I just ordered mine from Shapeways too. Wondered how it attaches to the Motion Tracker and the "pump widget" to it? I figured to epoxy it to the drill housing. And the "pump widget" bolts onto the bracket. |

There is one screw that you use to mount the bracket to the widget, but epoxy is better. Bracket then bolts to the drill body. |

Wow. Thanks Mr. Noble. So, I had it backwards. Bolt bracket to the drill, then epoxy the pump widget onto the bracket. Cool. Thanks very much. |

Is there a 3D model of the actual tracker itself out there? |

Noble, I'm ready to put it altogether. Do you have a recommendation for epoxy? I usually use the Devcon epoxies - but wondered which worked best for dissimilar materials? Like the plastic from the Shapeways bracket and the aluminum from the Accucare pump widget. Thanks... |

5min devcon is good. Minor sanding/scuffing smooth surfaces to be glued helps. |
