Not sure what to search for, so sorry if a thread exist. Are there any 3D printable models or 2D designs for front mounting to the frame to allow long objects to cut. The ‘over hang’ area at the front of the ShapeOko.
I was considering making something that attached to the two bolts pictured so it can be removed.

Yes, there are a number of them. Please see:
Working up a tutorial on this for the wiki:
but is now at:
First step is to create the box itself: This is done in OpenSCAD using the parameters:
length = 6;
width = 3;
height = 4;
thickness = 0.375;
bottomlidthickness=0.125;
pins=13;
partspacing=2;
Next resolve the pin/joint size and spacing:
[cnc_box_fingerjoint]
Next step is to work out how to get from the above parameters to a file which may be easily cut using Carbide Create — probably using METAPOST.
