Angular guide for saw (band or oscillating)

This tool is available on ALIBABA for $25, but Belgian customs charges a 21% VAT plus shipping costs, which B-POST deducts 15 euros from. I decided to print it myself, finding the original aluminum profile that slides into the groove was the most difficult part. For my saw, I used a 20 x 10 mm aluminum U-profile, filing down the 10 mm height to 7 mm. The bolts or nuts under the profile are secured with two-component glue (green paste in the picture). I added a nut holder for printing and created two holes on the vertical part that allow screwing a longer or martyr part. I used a square head bolt M6, a bolt M5, two nuts, and two washers. With the small aluminum profile and the printing, the cost comes back to less than $5. A personal remark: there was a power outage, so I resumed printing afterwards, but my printer shifted the Y axis, causing a small staircase or imperfect print. I didn't have the courage to remake an impression.
