For a run through on how to cut this tool holder, watch the linked YT video! * If the SVGs included above are not right for your setup or if you would like to support my work then you can pick up fully parametric CNC files for this tool holder on my Etsy store: https://goto.hswdesign.co/plane-rack-cad All my cut files and plans are free for those who join me over on Patreon 👉 https://goto.hswdesign.co/patreon Parameters used in the plane rack SVGs are: --- METRIC for 60mm and 80mm Cleat Thickness of ply used for wall cleat - 17.8mm Thickness of ply used for bracket - 14.8mm Height of cleat face - 80mm / 60mm Diameter of locking peg - 16mm Offset for locking peg - 0.1mm End-mill/bit diameter - 6mm End-mill/bit offset - 1mm Support thickness - 18mm Plane sole length - 400mm Plane bed angle - 10 degrees Plane heel projection - 20mm Plane insert width - 72mm Top projection - 36mm Elastic bore diameter - 6mm Elastic bore horizontal offset - 10mm Elastic bore vertical offset - 40mm --- IMPERIAL for 3" and 2.5" cleats Thickness of ply used for wall cleat - 3/4” Thickness of ply used for bracket - 1/2” Height of cleat face - 3” or 2.5" Diameter of locking peg - 1/2” Offset for locking peg - 0.005” End-mill/bit diameter - 1/4” End-mill/bit offset - 0.02” Support thickness - 3/4" Plane sole length - 15 1/2" Plane bed angle - 10 degrees Plane heel projection - 3/4" Plane insert width - 3" Top projection - 1 1/2" Elastic bore diameter - 1/4" Elastic bore horizontal offset - 3/8" Elastic bore vertical offset - 1.5" Quick note on zip files - I know these are annoying as you need to download and then re-upload to use with Origin. However there are a lot of files and this way there is less chance that you will cut with the wrong file!
