Corner Joints

Since a while now I keep salvaging metal rods from broken laundry racks.
I find this material very useful for model making, repairs, decoration, costumes, sculptures, custom tools and screws and much more. And the best is, it's totally free.
For example one of the cuboids I made for a project was used as a support for weaving fibres.
Or sometimes my photo desk is in need of an improvised rig or backdrop. In many cases rods and corners have proven extremely useful, and I never get tired of it.  

Scale the corner to fit your needed diameter. First print only one for testing. Trial and error has proven the best method to achieve a press fit. On the corner joints I have never used any glue so far.
