    #09 — Dovetail Slider Jig

    This folder contains a working example that generates a STEP model for: A dovetail track and mating slider, generated with adjustable clearances.

    The intent is that you can run the code here to emit a STEP file, open it in a CAD viewer, and/or import it into your slicer to 3D print and iterate.

    #What this example demonstrates

    • tolerance sweeps as code
    • dimension-driven feature generation
    • repeatable measurement artifacts
    • arraying features from data

    #Parameters to try

    • clearance
    • interference
    • stepCount
    • rows
    • cols

    #Suggested extensions

    • emit a small “label plaque” with the chosen settings
    • add a quick-fit calibration part alongside the main part
    • generate multiple sizes in one run

    #Variant 1

    Command line: ./run-example.sh 09 --baseWidth 60 --baseLength 80

    #Variant 2

    Command line: ./run-example.sh 09 --dovetailAngle 20 --dovetailHeight 10

    #Variant 3

    Command line: ./run-example.sh 09 --clearance 0.5
