Here is the setup look.

There is a big foot under the monitor. I want to change it and mount it on the bar or something. Then I can save the desk space.

HP 24f monitor doesn’t have standard VESA mounting screw holes. There is an insert tab on the back of the monitor.

I need to print something to replace the 3 above to catch the insert and hold the monitor.

I found it on a website, but I can not find it now. I forgot the original link. If you know it, or you are the original designer, please let me know. I will add the credit. HP_24es_Vesa_75mm_Mount_v1

Here are four pictures I forgot to upload here.

It is a great fit on the back.

Then I found two 2X4 lumber and cut them to the length I wanted, 24cm. The 2X4 is 3.5″ wide, good for the VESA mounting. I pre-drilled four holes on the 2X4. mount the monitor on the 2X4 with 4 screws.

 Also, I got screws from the storage room. These screws are from the Bunk Bed. The real name of these screws is Bolts Nuts Allen Head Screws Barrel Nuts.It is my draft design and the screws. I drilled the holes on the 2X4 and on the desk.

Mount them with the screw.

See, I make a plug as well.

This is the final look. It is clean and clear. Because I use one screw to mount the 2X4 on the desk. So I can turn it.

The key point of drilling the holes in the desk is the distance between the two monitors.

I have two holes here. Because the two monitors are too close. They are fighting each other when I turn them.

I wanted a 3D printer many years ago. My shopping habit is always like this.

• I am interested in something.
• Google it, looking for the reviews.
• Check the alternative products or replacements.
• Think about the cost to have it, the cost to run it, and the cost to repair it if it breaks.
• Think about the total cost and how often I will use it.
• Wait about one week. If I still want it seriously, I will run this list again and find a trusted vendor to purchase it.

Why did I buy Bambu Lab A1 mini?

Bambu Lab 3D printer is plug and play.

Plug and play is so important to me. I want to focus on the 3D design, and printing the prototype.

I don’t want to spend a lot of time to calibrate the machine.

There are a lot of reviews on the Internet. I don’t want to repeat it. I just want to record what I have and experience.

I opened the box and removed the foam. The big box has the Bambu A1 mini 3D printer and a sample filament.

 
I put the 3D printer on the IKEA LACK table. The very first job is to print the small boat. The whole printing process has very strong movement. The table is kind of shaking. So I put the printer on the ground now.

The 1KG Jade White PLA Basic filament arrived separately. I used them all until last week.

Here are some products I printed.

I designed the wire clip. It is used to fasten the cable under the cabinet.

The light cage. The design looks good. The end product is not as good as I expected. I thought it was a support issue or an overhanging issue. I will redesign it.

The good news is that it works.

The thing I printed yesterday is a clock face.

There is a free clock components “Kit-011” that comes with the Bambu Lab A1 mini.   I just need to go to the Maker World, search the name, and find the printing files.

I learned from my daughter, Grace. She told me how to seal the surface and paint on it.

Oh, the clock surface is printed with Elegoo Rapid PLA + filament. I ordered two 1 kg spools. Still white because I can paint it.

Below is the random picture I took for the printing.
