Face mounting Tetrix to GoBILDA Channel and vice versa

Today's post is about face mounting these two channel types together. It turns out that this is very easy two do with both systems, first I'll show the Tetrix to GB(goBILDA). This uses the small "u" brackets that fit within the end of a Tetrix channel. I found that it was sometimes difficult to reach come of the bolts due to the small channel size. However, the good news is that it is super easy to find a spot to attach them, you can see that the channel can be attached so it is flush with either edge of the GB or centered, Each mounting option provides space for at least 2 bolts to attach. This is repeatable every 8mm on the GB channel. The one catch is that you can't center a Tetrix channel if you are centered on a GB 14mm hole, you must align one edge flush with the GB channel. In that case you could use flat brackets on top of the channel with angle brackets on another face.




Now the GB is also easy to face mount to tetrix using their quad block mount adapters. There is a variety of ways it can be attached my pics show most ways, once again you can have flush edges or centered and horizontal adjustment based on the 8-hole to 4-hole spacing:
