Challenges

Fastening two or more parts together sometimes requires special tools, electricity or compressed air, sometimes damages the parts themselves, and sometimes cannot be undone.

Fastening two or more parts together should be quick, easy, produce a strong joint, and be a fully reversible process.

Bolts of different lengths are required to join one, two, and three thicknesses of frames to brackets, panels, and each other.

Approaches

M3xXX, M3xYY, M3xZZ bolts

38.1mm frame

M8x50, M8x90, M8x130

40mm frame

Life cycle

Degenerative transformation

Long bolts can be cut to form shorter bolts.

Last use

Stripped, bent, or abraded bolts degrade to abrasive pellets for ball mills.
