There are a lot of neat extrusion braces out there, but most require additional screws and nuts, and those that don't often don't provide any structural support, so threw together this screwless brace.
This brace slots snuggly into an existing bolted corner joint and provides a little extra stiffness and neatness as well as preventing the extrusions from rotating and loosening the bolt.
This part should fit all T and V slots extrusions and works for both sharp and rounded corner type profiles. The bracket requires no supports when printed as shown.

No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.2 - 0.3
Infill:
At least 10%
Filament: PETG or ABS recommended. PLA would work but may become loose over time
Notes:
While there is a chamfer at either end to help with inserting the extrusions, you may find that the tolerances of your particular printer make the bracket either too loose or too tight.
If you find that the part is too loose, turning up your flow rate by a few percent (5 or so %) can help tighten it down, and vice versa, if it's a bit too tight, lowering the flow rate can help.
I might also recommend heating the part a bit if you are struggling to insert the extrusions.
