Shackles for Containers

thingiverse

Here are some shackles intended for model railway wagons to hold down containers such as the AFP Container on the Conflat B. They are drawn full size so shall need scaling in your slicer to suit your model. Making up such chains from scale links in any number is a very fiddly and time consuming task so the printed versions should save a lot of effort. There are three files with the turnbuckles fully extended, half tightened and fully tightened. This allows for different lengths to suit your requirements Enjoy Jonny
