4040 Extrusion Linear Carriage

<p class=MsoNormal>I bought some 4040 extrusion for a cnc build project and realised there is lots of things out there for 2020 but little for 4040. So I designed and built my own carriage. It is modular in design and uses the same clamp arrangement as used in my 4040 t-nut so you can just plug them in etc. </p> <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2513895">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2513895</a> <p class=MsoNormal>It is designed for linear motion on extrusion and uses both sides so is not v-slot etc.</p> <p class=MsoNormal>I have included the tinkercad object file as this was made before I started using OpenSCAD. Hope it helps people to remix</p> <p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class=MsoNormal><b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'><u><span style='font-size:16.0pt;line-height:106%'>Features<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></p> <p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class=MsoNormal>Modular so split the stl and print what you need :-) </p> <p class=MsoNormal><b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'><u><span style='font-size:16.0pt;line-height:106%'>Hardware Needed<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></p> <p class=MsoNormal><b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'><span style='font-size:14.0pt;line-height:106%'>For Each Full Carriage Mount<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class=MsoNormal>--6 x M5 x 30mm Bolts</p> <p class=MsoNormal>--18 x M5 Nuts.
