A press-fit dovetail joint splits the face plate and damper to allow common lengths to fit on most print beds. With PLA and PETG on a Bambu P1S, I'm able to join them securely without glue.
I printed with default settings for PLA and PETG on a Bambu P1S. PLA could be OK since there's no load but I'd go with PETG. We'll see what happens to the PLA one in the winter.
Cautions:
- This design relies on the wall behind the faceplate to contain the sliding damper. Too much open space behind the vent may make it too flexible or cause the damper to catch. You could print a back plate to address this (I didn't need one and didn't design it).
- This design does not support weight, do not use it as a floor register.
