Custom designed flag holders for my bimini pole

Very Nice !
The detail, design and functionality really blends in perfect with the location for the purpose.
Great execution can't wait to see in action.[flag]
 
Also interested in a group buy if the price is right!
 
I have to make some tweaks as I want to make it work without fasteners or tools needed. I'll more than likely just put the STL file out there for people to get and print on their own. The cost would probably be more than it's worth if I made these for people. I'll see what it would cost me per part though once I finalize the design. There are similar flag holders out there that will always be cheaper but the quality of them doesn't have great reviews and I just wanted to make my own with a stronger design.

Are you in the market to make other types of parts? I am trying to make a panel to hold my VHF radio in the small cubby next to the helm. I tried to make one out of wood but it just didn't turn out like I wanted.
 
My printer is limited to small parts that fit within a 4.9" X 4.9" X 6.5" build volume. Might be too small for a VHF unless you're talking handheld.
 
looks great! Would love to get my hands on 2 sets!
 
Take my money please.

Unfortunately, the piece I need is larger than your printer can make. I may use plastic and see if I can cut it to fit. I have until July so no rush really.

Wished I could help ya. Let us know how your project turns out as others may want to make something similar in the future.

Back in my headlight HID projector retrofitting days we would make custom hand-formed shrouds and bezels from ABS and sometimes full vacuum formed enclosures long before 3D printers were a thing, so I'm sure you can come up with something. ;)
