2020, 2040 and 2080 profile

thingiverse

I put this together as a test after seeing a few people printing their own profiles and wanted to give a few different profiles a go for myself. As it stands you can produce your own customizer .stl files by choosing the profile type (currently 2020, 2040 or 2080) and then the length of the profile you want. I've also used this as a basis to build profiles with built in brackets for 45 degree and 90 degree connections. I'm still playing with the design of those though and will add them as an option later if anyone's interested in this design. The design of the profile is an amalgamation of measurements from a number of specification diagrams and some of the measurements may well get tweaked as I use the profiles created and test them. I've tried printing with different materials and layer heights and also tried printing vertically as it comes and also with the profile laid on it's side. Printing vertically tends to be neater but can lead to issues as the lengths increase ! I'll update the printing section as I decide what works the best. Version history... v1.0 First version with 2020 and 2040 profiles V1.0.1 Added 2080 profile v1.0.2 Made the slot size customisable and changed the default to 6mm (was 5mm) stl files also updated to 6mm
