1. MakerBeam Standoffs or spacers
Electronics and manufacturer beams work well together. It is possible to slide the circuit board into the carriers. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work well. The boards are filled to the edge with electronics, and the carriers are conductive. Mounting a circuit board on PCB spacings or standoffs could be a simple solution.
Our package includes 4 standoffs, 4 nuts, 4 screws (6 mm), and 4 washers. They are all in size M3 to complement MakerBeam well. This size (M3) also means that this product is well suited for OpenBeam. You can use the same hex nut wrench to secure the standoffs, so no additional tools are required.

8. MakerBeam Regular Starter Kit clear
MakerBeam is a mini T-open-source construction system and a versatile structural system. Mini-T is a miniature version of the T-slot, a technology used in industrial automation, robotics, and machine enclosures. It is not only small enough to serve as a model building system but also precise and strong enough to build real machines and robots. It consists of square, 10 mm thick, extruded aluminum beams, various connectors, and other components for building anything. All you need is an idea!
This system is highly versatile, and there is absolutely no limit to what can be realized with it. Motor mounts can be directly attached to the beams, and small angle brackets can also be used to install servos. Since MakerBeam is open-source, you are encouraged to develop your own parts to connect with the Mini-T standard, further expanding the possibilities.
The components offer you endless building options in miniature size. MakerBeam nuts and bolts are M3 sized. The construction allows for flexible arrangements, as there are no fixed positions for using boards on the sides, giving you the freedom to easily realize your own design.
