Got what are - hopefully, finally - test prints ready to mail out to Sigma05 and Chriscanbreach; will get them in the mail Monday, should arrive before the weekend, so if you could hook them up and post various pics ASAP (hopefully because they work *knock on wood* ...but if not, showing why not) I would really appreciate it so I will know to start pumping out more. (I think DoubleHaul is also printing one in PLA to test - he got me involved in this, so I figure a personal copy of the 3D model file is the least I can do
- but IIRC he doesn't have the Safariland T-nuts that have the teeth on them, so just because the adapter works for him won't 100% for-sure mean it will work for everyone..? So unless that's not the case, should probably wait on at least one other confirmation.)
Here's what they look like (front and back):
...and here's what the "cinch rail" version looks like against a QLS fork:
...and
here is why I designed the attachment points the way I did (size-wise); the QLS mounting plate is "tight" around the top, and I didn't want to cover up the forks too much and make it difficult to quickly remove the holster (just in case, because you never know, right?). So this might turn out to be an idea that would require too many R&D cycles to be feasible (and/or just won't in a worthwhile way, period). The red lines show the "problem areas" I'm talking about:
There you go, gents: the Omnviore-Safariland Adapter Plate v0.9. Hopefully also v1.0; keep yer fingers crossed and knock on each piece of wood you walk by, plsthx!
And with that I'm fucking going to crack open a beer, say "cheers" to myself and take a shot of rum , try and clear my mind of CAD and 3D printing, and go play video games the rest of the day...because my brain says it is fucking
done and will walk right off the job site and never come back if I don't give it what's left of the day off
