I found Bill84s corner bracket and printed out a pair for my new printer but I was going to be using bolts instead of screws so where his support bracket in the back was wouldn't work for me as I couldn't get a socket in there (the irony is after all the modifications I ended up using screws) so I started modifying it, I cut the back support away but needed some sort of extra support in the corners of the brackets so I connected the tops then thought they would look better curved, then I was looking at it thinking "what a waste of plastic" and thought about cutting a triangle out but it wouldn't look very good and would give three sharp edges to crack at so I decided to cut circles out, it lessens the plastic used to save on plastic which causes it to print faster also, is extremely strong, and looks pretty cool. I included the inside corner gusset that I created but did not end up printing it or using it but included it if someone wants it and the sketchup file. Update 8/29/2015: I made the bottom corners for a 0.5" gap but when putting my printer together I decided I wanted to use a power socket out of an old PC power supply but it was 0.75" tall so I made two new bottom corners with a 0.75" gap, I found a minor issue with the 0.5" ones so I fixed those as well, enjoy.
