T-Lock Bayonet Joint - updated
UPDATED: A raised boss was added to make it easy to align the two parts of the joint and an access hole was added for shafts, cables, wire harnesses, candy, etc.
How should we attach one object to another in the world of 3D printing? Two complex parts that have the details to hook together would be better than a bunch of parts, nuts and bolts.
These two simple parts are connected with a double row T-lock style bayonet joint as a way to explore that idea.
Perfect to join parts for an object that is larger than your build volume ... or for that removable droid arm.
Here's a video of how it works: http://youtu.be/-jOLMR73O1E
Enjoy!
