Venetian Blind Bracket

thingiverse

As I went to open my blind in my bedroom one fine day, the left bracket exploded and the blind fell on my head. These are the cheap, Walmart style blinds that were never really designed to last, I imagine, but in any case, it seemed stupid to buy new blinds than to just make a new cap. So this is that. Instructions Print and mount. That's it. Bots that are better calibrated will naturally yield better prints, but mine did pretty darned good nonetheless. Item of note -- the cap that fits into place to keep the blind in place is a little tight. It works and holds, but the bracket flexes open just a tiny bit. If you know the secret, then by jove, tell everyone. Oh yeah, that's a Google Sketchup file there with the two parts in it. Edit to your hearts content.
