Electric Terminal Block and Insulin Caddy

Hi I designed a Electric Terminal Block for my work because they didn't have one that would fit a 4"x4" electrical box that was already installed in the line so I found the aluminum blocks at the hardware store and I printed the block I needed,

As for the Insulin Caddy, My Dad is a Diabetic and wanted something to hold his insulin and stuff in the door of his refrigerator,
so he designed a 2D version of what he wanted and I drew is up in 3D and modified it to be more 3D print friendly.
thought I would share.

The Electric Terminal Block
it can handle 12 gauge to 6 AWG wire and aluminum blocks are suppose to handle 50 amps
after 3 hours there was no signs of heat on the block or wires.

Print Settings
Infill: 100%
layer: 0.20mm
Rafts: NO
Supports: NO
Filament: ColorFabb XT
Print Time: 3 hours

Great prints... just be careful with the electrical one as most filaments are not really suitable for mains electric (if that's what it is used for) and making your own can invalidate things like house insurance!
