This insert fits in the groove of a 20mm Makerbeam type rail.
- The hole in the slot is 3.96mm 5/32" hole for a 10-32 bolt.
- This will allow you to tighten the insert into the rail.
- Use the bolt to thread the hole in the insert (or a 10/32 tap).
- Modify the surface of the "blank insert" yourself to hold anything.
- I included an SVG from Inkscape if you want to laser cut the insert
- The DXF file can be modified to hold anything onto the rail.
- Scale the insert on the z axis to make the insert longer.
- Inkscape was used to trace the outline of the channel
This is part of an automated, arduino controlled, Immunostainer - based on a Makerbeam type frame and Nema 17 stepper motors. Megunolink is used for the control, protocol definition and user interface.
Cheers!
