The file 'Loft Window Bracket (variable Position) 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 362.7KB.
My loft window would only hold position at fully open or closed - the gas struts that allowed it to open didn't have intermediate positions...
So i designed and printed a variable position bracket to allow me to hold the window open at any position i wanted. Can also be used to keep box,trunk, etc. lids open
Printed in PLA @ 0.3mm with a high infill for main support parts
No supports or rafts needed (small inbuilt support to remove from 'Window_base.stl)
Enjoy!
UPDATE 280915:
Replaced the file: LoftWindow_base.stl with LoftWindow_base_v2.stl.
The break off supports weren't slicing in Cura. This version has slightly wider supports which solves that issue.
DISCLAIMER:
PLEASE, please DONOT use this bracket as the only support for the window or lid - it should only be used as a stay bracket and in a light loading situation.
NEVER use this bracket as a safety device in an environment where small children have access to open windows.
