About this 3D model

Update (2025.Apr.25): Added 15 inch (nominal) long Main Dividers (7.5" Male and 7.5" Female). Plates 28 and 29 on the Multiple Sizes profile. Update (2024.Nov.21): You asked 8" cross-divider with hooks. You got it! Added a plate for it. Update (2024.Jul.25): You asked for more sizes to allow you to mix and match more. Check the latest print profile I added. Let me know if you need a special sized piece. Summary: Large and Thin Plates joined end-to-end, no glue needed! Great way to exceed the build plate limits. My wife asked for a sock drawer divider for a very popular IKEA night stand . The problem was the length of the dividers being larger than the build plate. So, how do you join rigidly 2mm thick plates without using glue or adding extra bulk? ? I experimented with different ideas and I think I found the right combination for the perfect end-to-end joint. Once joined together, the plates are rigid and cannot be easily taken apart. Even if you do not need a drawer divider, you might still be interested in seeing how two thin plates can be joined into a much larger one with no glue. That means there are no limits on how long such plates can be!!! The current profile is the first iteration that made my wife happy. Do your own testing: If you want to do your own experiment with different filaments or layer thickness, feel free to download the R&D files containing different draft angles for the zipper joint. Find out what is the minimal draft angle that would hold your tiles together in all three directions for your specific use cases. https://makerworld.com/en/models/160732#profileId-176413 Plates 1 and 2: Main Divider Plates On the first two plates you will find the two main pieces of a 16 ¾" long divider . To join them simply align the zipper and gently tap each bit in its place. Once assembled, the connection is very rigid and the two parts stay nicely aligned. They will act as one piece! Plate 3: Bottom Support You can use the main divider with the bottom support from plate 3 (shown in the picture above). This way it will stand on its own . Plates 4 and 5: Side Dividers I have also included two side dividers if you want to join multiple main dividers together : 8.75" long x 4" high on plate 4 7" long full height on plate 5. They can be inserted in the slots on the main divider, every inch. The design allows the use of side dividers end to end as shown below. What other sizes do you need? Drop your request in the comments and I will add them.
