Hi.
Can anyone comment on using either of these types of corner connector?
or
Pro's Con's? Easy to tweak the angle or good for setting a 90 degree corner?
Any (dis)advantage over using just an angle bracket and overlapping sections of profile.
Thank you.

I designed my own variant for 30 mm extrusion:

If you print close to 50-100% infill they're pretty strong.

Thanks Zitman.
I did buy some of the cubic connectors for 20x20. They do make for a tidy corner.
Those self-tappers are hard work, I chewed the heads up a little getting them in, wish I'd read your tip first.
I'm not sure if they're a better corner than an angle bracket though and my first attempt at assembling them produced quite a twisted non-square construction. I think ok if clamped flat and square.
