Very nice! How did you do the joints? It looks like those “stars” at the corners are separate pieces. Did you glue them together?

Very nice…

P.S. I can’t decide whether to get back into Fusion 360 or bite the bullet and dive into FreeCAD now…

The joiners are separate pieces.

It’s a standard slot together arrangement, but I added little sloping teeth on the ends of the slots with corresponding holes for them to latch into. No glue!

Fusion 360. The restrictions for non-professional users were greatly overstated IMHO. And it does so much more than just 3D modelling.

Although with an education license I have the full version anyway…
