CodeCreations Drywall Repair / Patch Clips by CodeCreations

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago
I had to cut a hole in my drywall to make a repair, and I wanted to patch it with the same piece I took out -- it was already just about the right size.
I designed these clips to meet this need. They're PLA and so a little inflexible, but the patch snapped right into place by wedging one side in, and then giving the opposite clip a solid whack.
The surface is flush, and the repair is solid. Next I just need to get out the drywall compound and finish it up.
I need to clean up the OpenSCAD code a bit (and make it parametric), and then I'll post it as well. Meantime, here is the STL for a single clip and a set of four.
Total cost of plastic: About 5 cents. :) Reprap rocks!
