Should v-slot be moved into `Mechanical Parts/Profiles EN`?

Open brianredbeard opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Currently v-slot profile lives in Mechanical Parts/Mountings/Gantry_plate. Meanwhile other profile types (Bosch, Misumi, DIN rail, etc) all live under Mechanical Parts/Profiles EN. Is there a reason that different styles of profile are stored in different locations?

If you check the file is, in fact, a gantry plate and not a v-slot profile as the name suggests. The naming is confusing.

I think the Mounting folder is intended for parts used for prototyping assemblies with 2020 profiles, for example the KP08, SK08 parts, corner brackets or L/T 90 degree joining plate. If that is the case, imo the gantry plate should stay here. I don't know if I just renamed the files it will cause some problems in the future.

Anyway, I can share a few models =) (in a few hours) in the Mounting folder.
