Nẹp đỡ góc hộp board game dạng tham số (Parametric board game box corner support)

Have a heavy board game collection? Do your boxen need a little more support? Accidentally mess up shortening your copy of Lords of Waterdeep? (The included model is for Lords of Waterdeep.) These little braces can help!

Instructions for Use

1. Measure the outside of the box, top to bottom

2. Measure the thiccness of the box

3. Enter those two values into the *.scad file and adjust the other parameters as you want (I highly recommend the excellent OpenSCAD Playground for this)

4. Print 4x legs as oriented

5. Attach the legs all the way in the corners as tightly as possible, with the narrow end pointing toward the bottom of the box

   • If the legs have trouble staying, a little glue or gaffer's tape work great to hold them in place (gaffer's tape also works well to reinforce the corner cardboard if it's made out of low-quality cardboard that won't withstand the force pressing down)

6. Close the box to make sure it sits correctly

Recommended Print Settings

• 0.4mm nozzle

• 0.2mm layer height

• 100% infill

• No supports

• Print as oriented

Parameters

• boxHeight (number): The external height of the box

• boxThiccness (number): How thicc the cardboard is

• supportThiccness (number): How thicc the support should be (less than 1mm tends to be fairly weak, but will fit better in the corner)

• supportLength (number): How long the top (wider, solid) end should be

• supportFoot (number): How long the bottom (narrower, hollow) end should be (making this too small may make the support stab through the bottom cardboard)

• supportTopBrace (boolean): Whether to include an extra brace to support the top side

• supportTopBraceThicc (boolean, dropdown): Whether the extra braces should be double-width

• supportTopBraceHeight (number, dropdown): What ratio the vertical portion of the brace should have with the horizontal portion, where 1 is equal to supportLength (the horizontal portion is always ( supportLength / 3 ) to prevent it from extending beyond the solid portion)
