@gr8jab ,

Awesome work!
Put me down for dozen of 2" please. I have my own bungee if it makes any difference.

Thanks

OK great everyone! Thanks for the interest. Sometime soon I'll to start a list and put it in the original post.

Hi all,

I'm back from Germany, recovered my crashed RAID box with my taxes before 4/15, and finally am working on the project again.

Today I tested some cutting parameters (power, speed, and number of passes). I haven't quite dialed it into a good setting to minimize plastic melting during the cut, but I'm close enough to make another prototype. The quality is fine at this point, but I'm going to try to optimize.

The only remaining challenge is how to bend the edge up in a controlled and repeatable manner without melting the nearby plastic. Today I used a vice and a small heat gun. It worked, but was totally uncontrolled and not repeatable. I had a little unwanted damage. I'm going to try to build a fixture and heat sink to make the bending cleaner and faster.

Check out the pics:

how long is it end to end? Converting it to a 3d part in sketchup but I'm not certain of the scale.

Couldn't seem to upload an stl to the site directly, but here's a first whack at converting this to a 3d object with sketchup. When I load it into my slicer, it looks too thick. I set it to 2.5mm.. maybe that's too much. 51mm slot size (50.8mm=2inch). Also, I didn't add the bend...

There are some cooler features in the Z-axis on a standard 1" dominator. Maybe you could add those to help secure the edges a little better.
