Incredible. I have serious doubts that I could visualize the separations and geometry well enough to design this in some CAD software, but to be able to see it so completely within the single block just blows me away. Oh yeah...... and then to be able to actually make it. Wow, and thanks for sharing.
i'm going to try making it in fusion 360! wish me luck
@@023douwebakker could you do it?
@@youpi403 already done it :)
Still needs a bit of tweaking but i have printed a 3d prototype
Douwe Bakker well done!
That is insanely great. Wow. Awesome work. Thank you for showing us.

This reality check is especially good, for those of us, who are thinking: "My mortising skills are quite impressive!".
