<p>I made this so it fits without requiring any screws. Once printed, you can use wood glue or even two-way tape to secure it in.</p> <p>It's made for a desk height of 15cm.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 2</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.1</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>100</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Wanhao PLA Natural White</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>I printed this on its side to eliminate needing supports.</p></div> How I Designed This =================== <p><strong>How I made this thing?</strong></p> <div><p>A corner is a corner, especially a desk has a very sharp corner. I designed this to "mimic" the corner of a desk while also providing a safety feature.</p> Using Blender: <p>I added a cube and measured 15cm to get my desk height.</p> <p>Then I added second cube and placed it over the first cube and began stretching it out until I had my basic shape of the guard.</p> <p>I turned the first cube at 90 degrees so as one of it's corners was in the middle of the second cube.</p> <p>Next, I added two more cubes and placed them on the corners of the second cube and rotated one at 45 degrees and the other at -45 degrees.</p> <p>Using the Boolean modifier, I selected "Intersect" and made a clean cut of the two angled cubes.</p> <p>I then added another boolean modifier and cut the mid section of the second cube using the first cubes dimensions.</p> <p>At this point I had a basic "C" shape.</p> <p>Jumped into Edge mode and selected an edge and pressed "Ctrl + B" to bevel out the edges to make them round.</p> <p>That was how i made this thing.</p> </div></p></p></p> Category: 3D Printing
