LCInterlocking Extended is a maintained fork of LCInterlocking,
currently based on upstream LCInterlocking 1.5.1.
It adds a configurable through-cut margin to the boolean cutting
tools used for interlocking joints.
This addresses residual thin faces ("skins") that can remain at
the bottom of slots when the cutting solid terminates exactly on
the opposite face, due to geometric/boolean tolerances.
The default margin is 0.10 mm per side and can be changed by the
user in the MultiJoin parameters.
Version 1.1.0 also isolates the Python modules and FreeCAD command
identifiers used by the fork. LCInterlocking Extended can therefore
be installed and used alongside the original LCInterlocking
workbench without module or command-name collisions.
Tested successfully with:
- FreeCAD 1.1.1
- FreeCAD 1.1.3
On FreeCAD 1.1.3, the original LCInterlocking and LCInterlocking
Extended were installed simultaneously and both workbenches were
successfully loaded and used.
The addon has also been successfully installed and updated through
FreeCAD's Addon Manager using the dist branch as a custom repository.
