Flag Clips

thingiverse

These clips serve as attachment points for burgees, signalling flags, or any item you need to elevate to eye level, utilizing a lightweight halyard to make them visible from afar. They're specifically designed for lighter loads, not heavy-duty applications like sail hoisting or mooring lines. I've come across these clips and saw an opportunity to print them more affordably than buying them outright! The clips are secured at the ends of a line running up the mast (or flagpole) and slide together into the gap in each clip when held at 90 degrees. Use a halyard knot or your preferred method to attach them to the halyard ends, then secure another set to the rope carrying your flag. Simply unclip the halyard ends, clip to the flag, raise the flag, and you're done. I've created two versions - one lightweight and the other more substantial - yet both are compatible. The hole without a gap is sized for 4mm cord.
