To add to the chaos, disputes of infringement and the legitimacy of a
patent are in the Federal arena while the amount of damages,

The 2D fasteners - invented, patented or not - they make
for some beautiful cabinets. They are both stylish and
a delight to use.

Inventing something is a no-brainer. Getting patent protection for it
is something else!
I think Wayne’s short 2D fasteners are kind of special. Being just long enough
for the joint, they allow an adjustment that I’ve used so many times
constructing the K transceivers, etc. to fit the panels and boards just so.
Also light weight.

Hi.
For the european guys:
Try http://www.box73.de/index.php?cPath=241_245
The dimensions are metric, so are the threads. I wouldn't combine those
with elecraft products , but if i were to make my own enclosures etc.
i'd take these. Hassle-free for the metric native.

Don,
I've used angle stock on more primitive projects but if you look at the
picture(s) you can see that the flat plates are joined with 3/8" square aluminum
bar stock. I used T6 material for its clean drilling and threading properties.
The flat plates are all 6061-T6 material as well.
The same principle has been used in woodworking for quite a long time.
My father learned it from his grandfather for cabinet making. I am
currently watching the British '70s television series Connections.
Re-inventing things over the centuries is quite common. The problem

Wes,
If you are referring to the aluminum angle stock, I used that back in
1960 when constructing a amplifier. I did not think I "invented" it,
and at that time I did not have a drill press, just a hand drill and a
tap, so the holes were not precisely spaced. It worked well, and
complied

I'm glad you see it my way :-)
BTW, a couple of our other club members projects are worth taking a look at.
Also, one of our members reported at last night's meeting that he received his

Alan,
That is a custom design by Elecraft, so I doubt there are alternate sources.
You can order by contacting Elecaft sales (sa...@elecraft.com) and ask
for p/n E100078 - 2-D Fastener.

They are only able to connect one plane to another plane. They cannot
connect three planes at one time. Making a 2D connection is what they do.

Presumably because they *fasten* in two dimensions (there are no
threaded holes in the ends of the blocks).
