# PitClamp Mini Reinforced 3030 Hinges
> Assembly guide and bill of materials for the reinforced 3030 hinge mount variant of the PitClamp Mini
## Assembly video
Watch the full assembly walkthrough to see how all components fit together.
## Printing
This variant uses the standard PitClamp Mini print settings with an additional wall on the Ring component.
### Print settings
| Setting | Value |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Walls | 6 (Ring: 7 walls) |
| Infill type | Cross Hatch or Gyroid |
| Infill percentage | 10% |
| Supports | Normal (Snug) with 3° threshold angle |
| Support placement | Allow supports on part |
| Seam | Nearest (or your preference) |
**Recommended filament:** PLA+ for optimal strength and durability.
All parts must print in the default file orientation. Printing Base components in other orientations causes structural weakness that may lead to failure under load.
### Print-in-place option
If your printer is well calibrated and your material has optimal layer adhesion, you can use the print-in-place Upper+Handle variant. Find this in the `/Non-Standard` folder—it's included in the Generic 3MF file by default.
### Critical area reinforcement
For maximum strength, use a cube modifier to force 100% infill at the critical stress area shown below.
Adding 100% infill at high-stress areas significantly increases the load capacity and longevity of your mount.
