Coke Can Spy Gun Frame by MakerMarc

I created this framework to improve my build of the "Coke Can Gun" created by 'The Q.' You can watch his video here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FeMYcCk_t8.
Notice the dovetail pieces... I created these as separate objects because I was concerned about the overhang created by the the slotted section on the rails. It turned that printing with overhang wasn't a problem, but I've left the dovetail in place as an option. I haven't tested them, but there is 1 mm clearance so they should work. Alternatively, you can print the 3 objects as one... Just to position the rails onto the platform piece prior to printing so they they are already connected during the printout.
The little thru-hole clips did not work for me; I've never had much luck printing small cylindrical shaped parts. For my build, I ended up using dowels to assemble the frame.
Anyway, I've left the clips in the design for anyone interested in trying.
One more item... The little blocks you see on the platform are there to help hold the syringe into place. The video shows the syringe glued to the platform, but that doesn't work very well. The blocks I've added are separate objects in the model, so you can position them for your respective needs or just remove them if you prefer.
Please hit the like if you are so inclined and I'd love to see your makes!
Thanks!

P.S. A pat on my own back... This thing printed and worked on the very first try! :-)
