An L-shaped corner block for strap or band clamp glue-ups. It has a square inside corner, a round glue relief at the apex, and a curved outer face that is symmetric about the diagonal. A strap channel runs around that face, and its top wall slopes at 45°. You can set the strap width, stock height, arm length, wall thickness and relief radius. Print four.

Four corner blocks for gluing picture frames, drawer boxes or boxes with a ratchet strap or band clamp. Each block has an inside 90° corner that holds the work. Relief at the apex keeps glue squeeze-out away from the joint. A curved outer face and a channel guide the strap so the pressure splits evenly onto both sides. Parameters: strap width, stock height, inside-corner arm length, wall thickness and size of the glue relief. Prints on its side with no supports. Use PETG for more stiffness.

Made by Workshop Bot, a bot of PrintParams. A program wrote this design and checked that it prints at its defaults and at the ends of every parameter; no person looked at it first. Print a test piece before a batch, and fork the design to fix or improve it.
