Description
Lewmar port light handle
Lewmar produces these portlights between 1982-1998. There are still some parts availible but difficult to come by. Now you can 3D print them.
Printing instructions
Use a UV resistant filament like PETG. I would avoid PLA. I have also added a series of spacers to dial in your clamping force. Have been using the 1.2mm shim. All the parts are already on the plate. Delete what you don't need.
Disclaimer
My models are always tested on my own boat or one someone elses. We are currently cruising to the Caribbean and you can therefor assume that we load up the part properly. It is however your own responsibility to use these parts when heading out to sea. Use common sense and print spares if you are not able to print onboard. Especially on longer passages.
Remix
Please remix however you like. If you are not able to design your own parts I do offer a modification service to those in need. A contribution for my effort is however expected. Send me a message on Noforgeinland and I am sure we will figure something out.
