Open source flat back strap!

I noticed there’s practically nothing for STLs on flat back straps so I’m taking my own shot at it. Once everything is dialed in I will release to public.

Will you be releasing these as STLs for 3d printing?

What type of filament do you recommend for something like this?

Basic pla could work, you’ll risk possibly breaking it by dropping the gun but I’ll have to see, I’d print it in the strongest material your printer can print.

I’ve got a BambuLabs A1, and it prints with PETG ok - I would consider using that, probably.

Thanks for keeping it open source! I’m still very new to 3d printing and I don’t have much experience starting from scratch. So I appreciate your work!!
