T-slot & V-slot Brackets

thingiverse

Here you will find various brackets for T-slot and/or V-Slot profiled extruded aluminum. Most are Metric Sizes (2020, 2040, 3030, etc.). The 1515 Series type brackets refer to the 1 1/2" Extruded aluminum profiles. Some of which can be used with 3030 metric profiles. I am not sure if it would make a difference, but I used Tinkercad to scribble these brackets out in the coloring book. Sorry, I only used two or three different crayons. I had always wanted a 3d printer. I studied every mechanical, electrical and coding details that I could. I investigated many Ready-to-run and kitted 3D printers available. I found they were priced far over what I wanted to invest for the features and size I desired. It may seem backwards to most. But I believe the best way to learn any machine is to build it yourself from the ground up. I reclaimed some parts from an old copier (Motors, belting, bearings, etc.). Then purchased various parts, every paycheck, over the last eighteen months. The price for all the brackets I needed far exceeded the price I had budgeted for the entire build. I did not have a 3d printer at the time and it became quickly obvious I needed one. I found a small used printer on an auction site and purchased it for just under a hundred dollars, US. It needed work and I had the parts. This collection was scribbled out to fill the "Bill of Materials" for my 3d printer.
