    The 3D printing gods are smiling down upon me today. The prints are working. I have 12 new tri-hooks in the can and am hoping for a dozen more.

      In all the pictures I've seen of platforms with mounted ARC's, I don't recall seeing anybody else with the Whip! It practically jumped out of the little pizza box at me.

        Does the label on your Whip say G1 or G2?

            Please keep me up to date with the progress! I’d be more than happy to contribute to your charity and have an opportunity to use one of your swivels.

              OK. I'm trying to figure out who bought what at X for my records (too many beers that day). I know you got the Arc Astro. Did you get any others? Same question to Cazbag.

                  1 tuxedo Astro and the one blaze you see in my current avatar for a grand total of 2.

                      Yep I have an actual tuxedo that I am going to wear it to dinner tonight so I just might hang the swivel around my neck as a conversation piece.

                            Look at what showed up at the Swivel Lab today!



                            Just think of all the power, all the love, all the magic that will go into these little power balls!

                              What material do you specify for the power balls?

                                Those are Delrin ball bearings. a.k.a. Acetal, a.k.a. POM
                                Very low coefficient of friction, especially against the copolyesters I use for the bases. Also, the Delrin is harder than the copolyesters, so unless some kind of grit gets in the channel with the ball, these babies stay perfectly smooth and shiny, no lubrication necessary.
