MP3DP v4 - OOznest T/V Slot Profile, Cutting Lengths for 250 mm^3 bed

Welcome @Carnivac !

RE1) Looks good to me, maybe…

Ooznest T/V Slot - am I correct in my assessment or not?

This stuff? 20x20mm T/V-Slot Aluminium Extrusion Silver - Ooznest , the profile dimensions look like regular 2020 Alu extrusion that I’d use. Recommend comparing with dimension specs for 2020 on amzn/zyltech, make sure you’re happy.

RE2) Not sure those Y dimensions are correct? But X and Z sound right to me. Related post…

Measuring frame for 250x250x250 Usable… But may end up with 235x235 heater bed/build-plate given they’re easier to find than 250x250. Screenshot with my cut list… May oversize corner verticals to help enclose/protect X/Y/Hotend mechanisms.

Decided to reduce risk of build and print issues/delays by using Alu extrusion instead of Ply Panels.

4/6/23 Edit: Using different lengths for upright Z extrusion, details below…

• If I was to build again, I’d probably use more common build plate dimensions. Mentioning because there seemed to be fewer 250x250mm options than other dimensions (e.g. 235x235 or 300x300).
• Note my Z extrusion ended up being additional 20mm more so I could fit electronics under the build plate. Still not sure if that’s a good idea, no one else seems to have gone that route.

Shameless plug… Created a mp3dp v4 build video you can playback at 1x to 200x available at AzaB2C - Build. Make. Hack., or there’s this 2500x playback short. Hope that helps, cheers!
