IKEA Fridans blinds mount extension

thingiverse

When changing blinds at home, from some other IKEA model to IKEA Fridans, I discovered that the new blind mounts should be placed 2.5 cm further apart than the old ones. Leaving me with the choices of drilling new holes, cut the blinds or go 3D printing I naturally went 3D printing. Using Uptownwings mount for PVC windows (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3676609) as base it didn't take long to create the replacement part I needed to mount the blinds without further harm to wall or blinds. I printed the prototype in PLA and the blinds worked with that mount but I think it might be too brittle to last for a longer period so I used ABS for the final piece.
