August Smartlock (not pro) 3rd gen to newer Defiant deadbolt adapter

Before buying an August Smartlock on Amazon, I decided to confirm compatibility with my deadbolt. Defiant = Compatible it said. It wasn't. A quick google search (rather than trusting the August website) brought me to a page on their website that showed newer Defiant models weren't compatible. So I bought a Prusa i3 mk3 (ok, I was looking for any excuse to buy one) and designed and printed an adapter (similar to the ones provide) for this deadbolt. Ok, I haven't refined it yet, dimensions are a little off, but it works. Printed with 2mm resolution supports in simplify3D, and I added them only on the tips of the parts that stick out. They practically fell off after printing, no tools or force needed. Biggest issue is that the slot is too long. Doesn't affect function on my setup, but could lead to issues if alignment isn't right. Revision coming soon Edit: It worked well, and the slot length really didn't seem to be an issue. I designed version 2, but then ended up moving before testing it. So version 1 is tested and working well. Version 2 is untested. I seem to remember accidentally printing without supports and it working.
