Description

PDF

This is an improved version to the tabla-table I've made already, so the photo is not exactly what you will get, but both are made to put them ideally on a cajon (put a cajon rubber-mat between for some grip, you get cheap on Amazon) or any other flat stand. The improved model is made to glue the parts to the wood-board instead of using screws. The drawback is, there is not much tolerance of the gap, so the thickness of the board needs to be precise (+0.2 mm tolerance in the model), so better print out the (smallest) edge-part out to check the fit. The size of the board must be 580 x 280 mm with the attached multi-part 3mf-files and all four corners needs additional cuts according to the pdf-file (1:1 with cut-file included). They are necessary to have enough space for your legs (I know because I left them out first). I only made two cuts with my board, but to simplify the model and make the parts compatible even with 200 x 200 mm bed-size (diagonal orientation), all four corners need the same cut in this version. You need to print 4x ‘edge’, 2x ‘side’ and each ‘length’ part twice. 

If you need another thickness or even dimension, make a fee account with Onshape, search for “Tabla-Tablet v2”, add the model and change the #-values, export the parts as STL (separately) or 3MF (combined minus ‘board-noprint’). Onshape is very powerful and free for personal use still.

Don't print with PETG, because it doesn't stick well to glue. PLA recommended. Make sure to download the PDF-file to cut the board properly.
