mounting strips for the grille slats, printed in glass filled nylon. The end caps for the grilles were printed in white PETG on a smooth plate, so that the visible edge is smooth.

Reminds me that I haven’t posted a picture of mine. The interesting thing about it is the 3D prints that aren’t visible. The ventilation grille is [factory] made from bent strips and supplied with plastic mounts, but these mounts were too short and didn’t allow for the insertion of the control panel, so I 3D printed replacements that screw to L-shaped pieces of MDF behind the grille.

@squaresinger @Snafucode In OpenSCAD you can pass the resolution variables as arguments to the function, so it’s not quite as bad as you are implying. See eg https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Primitive_Solids#sphere

@Fondots @Bluewing especially since the terminology is different in different dialects of English. I think what you call lag bolts might be coach bolts over here.

@IMALlama @Live_Let_Live I wonder if a design for a metal FDM printer based on MIG could work?
