Bumper template for Decker table

thingiverse

This is very specialized, but in case anyone has the same problem I did... [Decker](https://www.roomandboard.com/catalog/dining-and-kitchen/tables/decker-tables) is a nice round dining table from Room & Board. The table top sits on a few rubber bumpers and if you have a glass top then you'll see those rubber bumpers through the table so its nice to get them spread out evenly and not dotted around randomly. This template helps you do that. There are 8 small studs on the round disc at the top of the table base and we'll use these for the alignment. If you want to use 16 bumpers print `table_template_16_bumpers.stl`: * Place the lip on the template on the edge of the disc * Slide it around the edge until one of the studs is visible through the window on the stalk * Hold the template steady and place two bumpers in the cutouts near the edge of the disc * Be careful with this! There are no do-overs * If you need to move a bumper you'll probably peel paint off the table which you'll see through the top. * Measure in advance to verify its going to work for you * Move the template round to the next stud and repeat If you want to use 12 bumpers its similar but you'll print an "odd" template and an "even" template and alternate between them, four studs on each (see the photo). I have the 60 inch table and I'm not sure if the other sizes use the same base, but the OpenSCAD file is all parameterized so it should be easy to tweak for other similar problems if necessary.
