Here is my first attempt at correcting misalignment of the PVC blades of my blinds. I needed to keep them aligned in order to not grind the mounting screws of my newly installed Avosdim solar conversion kit. TL;DR it did not do the job, that's why I made this second attempt using guiding guards instead.
I post this model because someone asked me if it could solve his specific issue.
- Print as many as you have blades (1 out of 2 blades, but both sides).
- Remove the whole apron (all the blades) from the rolling shutter casing.
- Place one cap every 2 blade using a hot glue gun (be generous, as long as it's in the hole).
- Do the same on the other side, make sure the caps are on the same blades
- Install back the apron (all the blades).
Included is FreeCAD project in case your blades are slightly different.
Also included a section of my blades, to test tolerances and prototype.
