Dovetail frame corners

thingiverse

I designed these corner pieces as a combination of a 3d printing and woodworking project. The corners allow you to bolt together all pieces including the wood without the use of any glue. This means it can easily be dissembled. The 3d printed dovetails each take up 1/3 of the total thickness of the frame. In the wood parts of the frame the dovetails get inlaid to 1/3 the thickness on each side. the pieces can then get connected with bolts. The design is made for M4x20 bolts with a hex nut on the back. After printing i had to do some light sanding to get the two halves of the corners to fit together.
