Deluxe Watch Bracelet Block - The Mango Block

I don't think I ever the diagonal slots on a Bracelet Block. So I decided to make my own without them. Features include - Rounded corners and all holes to minimize snagging / catching. Notches at slot ends to allow you to drive out pins at the edge. Don't forget you can flip the block and use the back-side as an anvil too (see pics)

Block dimensions

52 mm x 52 mm x 25 mm  (2.05" x 2.05" x 0.98")

Slot widths

Side A - 1, 3 & 5 mm width

Side B - 2, 4 and 6 mm width

1 mm? - I don't know either, put your business card in it - but it's more about the intersection of the 1 mm and 2 mm slots, as the top is now a nice anvil to work over if you need to punch something out of an object that doesn't fit in any slot.   

Slot depths

All slots are 15 mm deep

Scaling options for wider or deeper slots 

Slot width - ((Desired slot width) / (Existing slot width))  x 100 = X & Y Scaling factor in percent. 

Work on the widest slot (6 mm) if you want wider, since it will reduce the scaling factor required and so material needed. E.g Taking the 3 mm to 7 mm would result in a 121x121 block. While 6 to 7 mm results in a 60x60 block. Still sensible.  So scale the slot that is closest to the size you want to keep overall changes in size reasonable.
 

Slot depth - ((Desired slot depth) / 15))  x 100 = Z Scaling factor in percent.

Mango block

My wife saw it for the first time and said - It looks like a diced mango - enough said. See the Bill of Materials below if you want the same color…and you do! :)
 

Enjoy.
