Attaching Maslow4 Directly to the Floor
If your work space has a concrete floor that you can attach things to, consider attaching Maslow4 directly to that surface. This is the simplest and cheapest option, while at the same time taking up the least amount of work space when the machine is not in use.
In this case I put my anchor points the long way in the garage, but if I were to do it again I would put them the other way so that they would be all the way by the walls so I wouldn’t need to step over them.
You want to place the anchor points on the floor in a roughly rectangular shape 8’x12’ (2.5x3.5m). Consider running the anchors horizontally across your space so that the anchors can be tucked back against the walls or under work benches where they won’t be under foot.
This design uses these 3D printed anchor points. If you have a 3D printer you can print your own for about $2 each, or if you don’t have a 3D printer you can take the .STL files and get them printed by craftcloud3d.com for around $7.50 each. This 3D printed part is designed to use this quick release pin, but any 10mm pin will work.
We’re working on getting kits of these parts for sale in our store.
