Name | Description |

2.25mm Sail Stay.stl | A small fitting with a 2.25mm internal diameter hole that fits 2mm rods. This is attached to a kite by pushing the skinny end through a hole, then melting it down with a soldering iron to effectively rivet it to the sail. |
Front - 3.2mm.stl | The front piece with a 3.2mm internal diameter hole that fits 3mm rods. Pair this with Back.stl. |
Back.stl | The back piece that goes with any Front-* file. Adhere to the kite using a M2x8mm screw, like these on Amazon. |
Fusion 360 Project | Includes parameters for the standoff diameter so the models can scale for different frames |
Printing Notes
I print these using Armadillo TPU with no supports and 100% infill.
