Title: Tow hooks
Post by: Fred on April 25, 2021, 17:54:13 PM
Alright so, new prints, and I have to say, nicely surprised!

Printed glider tow hooks, in various sizes from 6 to 12 mm, and they are brilliant! Tested one and tried to break it, but couldn’t! Once glued in a nose, they looks to be indestructible!

As usual, went mad and printed a stock of them of all sizes, very happy!

They are the kind, like the Mpx ones if you see what I mean, for a piano wire diameter from 0.8mm for the smallest one to 2mm for the big ones.

Fred you printed one of theses for me in the past. They work a treat.

Keep up the good work.
