rectangular board clamp for industrial profiles

Hi,
we used this clamp to fix and adjust some measuring bridges to thin boards. I guess you can also use it to fix other things onto industrial profiles.
Leave the bracket away and only use the clamp, if you want to be able to tilt the connection.
The connection is quite strong and easy to adjust if you use the star handle.
The thickness of the board we used was 20mm. Please tell me if you need clamp blocks for different board sizes.
The profiles are 40x40mm item-type aluminium profiles.
You can see the exact dimensions here:https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3971561
Use this star handle for the M8 bolt:https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3974809
You can cut a thread in the small holes on the sides of the bracket and use bolts (M8) to fix its position.
You can use simple and cheap M8x50 mushroom head bolts (Schlossschrauben) for the 40mm profiles.
We used PLA for the things, but I would rather use PETG if I had to print them again. Use wall count 3 at least for sufficient stability of the clamp block. No support needed (yay!)
Check the clearance first before you print the whole thing..
