Rachet with t-nut for 30 mm aluminium extrusion profiles

youmagine

I wanted to attach some cables to my Prusa MINI's Z aluminum profile in a way that wouldn't damage it - and that's how this ratchet was born. The "T-nut Ratchet for 30mm Aluminum Extrusion Profile.STL" file includes a pocket for an M3 nut, which can be secured with a 15mm M3 bolt. I have refined the design to make it simpler by adding an M4 hole, allowing it to work with a standard T-nut.
