Test disk schooter

thingiverse

This object serves as a test piece for the disc shooter competition. It comprises 3 parts that need to be assembled together. The design is intended for 19mm by 2mm disks, with the STL file containing 16 such disks. A little space is provided around the objects in the print. To assemble, the bottom and top pieces fit together using tabs and slots, without snapping. If you print this, your feedback would be greatly appreciated, including any design flaws. The OpenSCAD document contains two modifiable variables: 'l' (length of the shooter) currently set at 100mm, and 'num' (number of tabs for bottom-top piece connection), with default being 10 but only 8 are visible in this case. Sharing prints or OpenSCAD expertise is also encouraged. The object measures approximately 100mm x 100mm and requires assembly by slotting the bottom and top pieces, gluing or taping them together, inserting the plunger through the hole, attaching rubber bands to both ends, loading a disk, and pulling back the plunger to fire. Note that this is Work In Progress (WIP), with plans to add a cartridge for holding disks. Please share photos and tips after printing or if familiar with OpenSCAD.
