    The assumption is that you have your own machines on which to experiment, or helpful friends with machines. Please do not send Templot files to commercial laser cutting or 3D printing firms while this project is still experimental, because the results are unpredictable and possibly wasteful.

STL Fishplate Files

Had an enjoyable sit down at Scaleforum's 'Templot corner' chatting with John (Hayfield), who asked if I could re-post stl files for fishplates. Here they are; 54253 covers unskirted plates with pan pear bolts and 54293 covers skirted plates with square/round/square bolts. Intention at time of design was to print in pairs with joining tongue giving insulation. Enjoy!

@Cransford

Thanks Paul.

I have copied them into the Resources section so that folks can find them in future without hunting through the topics:

cheers,

Martin.

To pre-empt the question I'm often asked, in the Resources section the download button is on the right:

Martin,

Many thanks, it was a while ago when the files were first posted!

AS I'm working in P4, I should also have mentioned that they are scaled to 4mm (I may have deleted the original full size drawings - 'O' dear! If people can't resolve, I'll gladly redraw and post full size.

They have printed well in resin so again thanks. All I need now are some K crossing chairs please Martin. Then with a bit of shoving and heaving even complex formation will be possible . First COT printable tandem is in development. A few chairing issues to resolve, but I have high hopes.

John,

You had a busy weekend by the reports read!

Count me in as a dummy too! No, just plain ol'simple stl files. You'll need to fix and slice as you wish. As mentioned,these are for 4mm so would need enlarging for other scales.

Cheers, Paul
