Construction set for kids

Many connecting rods made for 6 mm wooden dowels can be found on Thingiverse. These are designed specifically for printing with rods of this size, ensuring they print smoothly without support, even when featuring complex details like 60 degree roof elements. The connecting rod length can vary to suit any project need; in this case, the designers have chosen a length of 12 cm to accommodate table-based creations. For users who want to experiment with different connector designs, an Open SCAD file is provided for modification and customization. To achieve a precise fit, simply scale up or down the diameter using your slicer software. Before assembly, use a 6mm drill to smooth out any internal roughness by hand, securing it in place with clamps. If you're working with machinery, be cautious and maintain a low drilling speed to avoid damage.
