A cap with a slot that slides over the corner of a table top, a shelf, a glass plate or a board in transit, with the outer corner cut off at 45 degrees. It keeps a sharp corner from hurting a child's head, and a soft board's corner from being crushed.

Enter the board's thickness; the clearance is added to it so the cap slides on, and 0 makes a press fit. The leg length is how far the cap reaches along each edge. The chamfer takes the point off the corner; at its largest the corner is a long diagonal face.

The cap is printed standing on one of its closed faces, with the slot open to the top and the side, so the slot's floor and roof are walls and no part of it hangs in the air. Print in TPU for a soft bumper, or in PLA or PETG.
