Sweet! 3d printing is a lot of trial and error, which is why I always hesitated with bigger designs.

That’s exactly why it is a partial model/design to rapidly iterate on it: 1g, 10-minute print time. The full version with all the print-in-place parts takes 16 minutes.
Another aspect is collecting designs for a library. From now on I can copy past this subassembly into bigger designs and know it will just work. If I need to modify it I know how and where to change it to get the desired outcome.
