Finger Tab for Barebow Archery

thingiverse

3D printed insert for DIY leather finger tab for barebow archery. Ideally print in two colors (by changing to a new filament color for the last several layers). The model is provided in six variants: right hand and left hand versions of 3 different sizes. If you want to rescale the model, choose a smaller model and scale it up, rather than scaling a larger model down. If you scale down, you are risking to make the lines too narrow, and they will not print well. Also, the holes for stitching will become too small. After printing, use a 1.5 mm (or 1/16") drill bit to clean up the stitch holes. Use an awl, two needles and a waxed thread to stitch the scale to the leather part. Trim the leather part to your own shape of the fingers. Search for a video "trim finger tab".
