This is a dovetail bar (½ 14 degree) that takes a Flat T-Track nut which you can source at Taylor Toolworks.
I really like these because:
- The load on the printed part is all compression, making them very strong.
- The Taylor nuts are relatively inexpensive and snap fit into the dovetail bar. No glue required.
- ¼ 20 is a common size, so easy to find mating hardware to make your own knobs or purchase.
- No need to buy T-Track, just us a ½ - 14 degree dovetail bit and cut your slots directly into wood.
I'm printing these with PLA, 4 perimeter walls, 85% Gyroid. This is 2 grams of filament and a 9 minute print. For reference,15% cubic with 2 perimeters is 1.4g of filament, 7 minutes to print.
