Hi,
i want to share a newer design of my rack for the T2, drawn with blender3d, printed with a prusa i3 3d home printer (material PLA or PETG). It requires two 90 degree angle usb adapter (like this one amazon.de).
Max. dimensions of the USB adapter front: width=20, height=12, depth=10mm (depth can be longer/shorter)
Also spend attention to the direction of the plug/upper side of the adapter. The plastic piece has to be on the rear side or your T2 will face the wrong direction. Check the orientation of the T2 Input- ports to make sure you order the correct adapters.
Here is an example for a correct adapter:
It has three parts: front, base, ring
The front and base did fit perfectly on the first try and can be secured with a small screw from the bottom. The ring is used for holding the cables. The vertical support of the base holds the T2 in place and in angle of 90 degrees to not damage the front usb port by the weight of the three cables on the top going to the back.
