Omnipanels - Structure (Old)

An addition of structural parts to the Omnipanels system.

The clips are used for reinforcement of Omnipanel structures, either to add strength or tie together unconnected edges.  Three types of clips are available:

The 'Flat' clip is used on a flat surface where two panels meet, while the 'Corner' clip is used on 90 degree corners.

The 'Over' clip is similar to the 'Flat' clip, except it can clip over a third panel, holding three panels at an edge together. This is most useful for reinforcing structures internally.

The standard type clips are ideal for most use cases. The A1 and A2 variants are adjustable in size, by scaling the the object on the Z axis in your slicer. The A1 clip is 10mm wide and the A2 is 28mm wide (as wide as you can practically fit on a panel).

Panel Inserts

The panel inserts allow you to fill an open panel. The included inserts are simply flat and close up the panel, but I will add many more types in future with different functionalities e.g. bearing, spring etc. This allows you to add new functionality to Omnipanels without needing to design and print complete new panels. The R1 and R2 variants have gaps to fit with reinforcing clips.

Panel Joiner

The panel 'Joiner' allows you to join two panels together as the name implies. To use it simply twist the wider side into a panel, the second panel can then also be twisted or clipped onto the joiner.
