Louvre slots: an add-on for the front of the head

The Louvre slots add-on goes on the front of the head: seven narrow upright slots, like a radiator. It adds no plastic: it is cut into the head's shell. On a bot built by 3D3D it takes $0.05 off (less plastic is printed), and it fits 7 of the 8 heads, the Gem head included.

How it is priced

It sits on the front of the head. The price above is worked out on the Gem head on the Mini v2's body, from the same cost sheet as every bot: $0.11 a gram in PETG, so it is a few cents, not a new part to buy.

Finishing: none. No piece needs supports taken off and nothing is glued on, so it costs $0.00.
