Overall (mm): length 12.0, width 12.0, height 7.6
- Woodworking joint drawn for 3D printing: the parts lock together by shape, so a print can be joined without glue or screws. Drawn at true size with the parts line to line (zero gap) in their assembled position — add your printer's fit allowance to the mating faces (your AI or slicer can do this).
- A hex pocket the size of an ISO 4032 M2 nut (4 mm across flats, 1.6 mm thick) with the screw hole through: the standard way to put a metal thread in a print.
- Drawn at the nut's true size: add your printer's allowance to the pocket (often 0.2–0.4 mm on the flats) so the nut drops in.
