Router Corner Template(s) - Imperial and Metric

prusaprinters

<p>Use this holder and the templates that go with it to guide your work when routing corners. This is designed to be used on a router table (see photos for an example). In the photos I show imperial measurements, but print files for metric measurements are also included. Included prints:</p> <ul> <li>holder for templates</li> <li>Imperial templates - round and "corner" 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1-1/4"</li> <li>Metric templates - round and "corner" 15, 20 ,25 ,30 mm</li> <li>tray to hold the templates</li> </ul> <p>The OnShape 3D CAD files for this are available here:</p> <p><a href="https://cad.onshape.com/documents/5f06e2d1be375d80979fa572/w/83b22dba312a7f31f453174b/e/696b5639190a708589e842eb">https://cad.onshape.com/documents/5f06e2d1be375d80979fa572/w/83b22dba312a7f31f453174b/e/696b5639190a708589e842eb</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Printed in PLA. The templates are designed to be a close fit in the holder, so I suggest printing the holder and one template first to check the fit. The templates are only held in by friction, so you want to make sure of a good fit. If necessary, the templates can be scaled up or down slightly to adjust the fit - of course this will change the sizes slightly but not enough to make a difference for wood-working purposes.</p> <p>Use the 3mf or gcode files provided (or use as examples for the settings). In general (for the holder and templates):</p> <ul> <li>0.2mm PLA</li> <li>10% rectilinear infill</li> <li>perimeters = 3</li> <li>Complete individual objects = checked</li> </ul> <p>The holder needs to be rotated on the print bed in order to fit the print envelope (see photos).</p> <p>The templates can be printed two at a time with "Complete individual objects" set to on. I might be possible to print 3 or even 4 templates at a time, but I did not attempt this.</p> <p>Print the tray in 0.3mm PLA using the canned settings.</p> <p>Other comments:</p> <ul> <li>The text on the templates can be printed in a second color with filament switching if you like, but I just colored them with a marker.</li> <li>I did not print any of the metric templates, but the settings used for the Imperial templates should work just the same.</li> </ul>
