Hi,

I'm looking at something to join two parts.

I have an object that I'd like to split and print in two or more part.

Then I had to join these parts...

I'd like to find a tick or a library o a simple advice on how to do to
join these parts.

Thank You in advance,

Oda

I created this design in OpenScad based on the pins used in the fairly well
known gear cube design
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3218332
Most of my changes were to make it easier to resize the pins as needed

You have left your question very vague.  If you mean you have a large object
and want to cut in in pieces to print and then reassemble, then I think
there is a puzzlecut library out there somewhere, and this capability is
also in BOSL2:

There are important pieces of information that you haven't supplied:

  • How strong does it need to be?
  • Do you need to be able to take it apart?
  • What do the original objects look like?  (e.g. How thick are they? 
    Do aesthetics matter?)

When I needed to do this, I did two things (which I just described under
a different subject):

  • Superglue.  I used a clip module (which intersects with a big cube)
    to cut the model in half, and then I used hobby-store superglue (BSI
    medium gap-filling, but I'm sure that's not the only choice) to glue
    the two pieces of plastic together.
  • A wooden frame around the parts, like a kid's jigsaw puzzle.

Usually sold through hobby shops with their own label, but they list a
number of online dealers.

I tend to make a Dovetail joint, seems to work quite well.

you have right!
I miss some fact!
I have an object in the wall and I'd like hang other object on it.

For example, A glass, a smartphone holder, a phone holder, a camera
holder,... All object joined (once at time) at the same object in the wall.
I can join and detach objects.

A nice solution but not for my case is

You'd better send the terminal output so I can have a look at it first.
