It seems that most of the drywall mounts that I looked for printed in a vertical orientation, which is not good for strength.
For once, I didn’t reverse engineer anything to design this. Lulz.

Update 8/10 - Added dimension sketches, Added .step file, Added a thinner support ring option that will sit more flush (but not completely)
Neat, now I can yell at you when shit falls down instead of just cursing these mounts in general. I hate these things, they often don’t install well, fall apart and never hold the weight they are rated for. I’ve tried a bunch of different types and they all kinda suck. Print me a better studfinder and we can be friends.
Fucking studfinders man…
Eeeeyyy! I just found the stud.
You can yell at me all you want! If you need a hug, I can get you one of those as well, no charge.
I am using some of the mounts now for some pictures, but I can say they are extremely stout, at least the way I printed them. You have to use a hammer to tap them in the last little bit so it doesn’t spin. They survived some fairly hard love taps, and once the screw was in, they aren’t moving.
Your personal experience may be different.
There are some other types for higher loads, but its not about anchor, its more about shitty drywall cant hold any load. If you want to hang something heavy you need wooden/metal plate in drywall or you need a concrete wall 😜
