Solenoid mount
A simple solenoid mount I have designed to hold a small solenoid in place for a theater production. I needed to create a remote system to drop a small chandelier. I came up with the idea of using a solenoid connected to an X10 remote.
The design holds the solenoid box in place, and is just long enough to prevent the pin from falling out. The solenoid I used to design this thing is a "DC 12V 2A Pull Type Linear Solenoid Electromagnet 10mm 20N". This fourth version should have all the dimensions right. I have been using Inventor Fusion, that does not have very easy measuring tools, thus the need for the revisions.
