This is my attempt at an arrow clip for holding 8 arrows in a 4" thin-walled PVC pipe. The idea is to use two of them to keep the fletching from getting damaged.
The one with the set screw is designed to have an arrow shaft or dowel in the center to make a kind of fixed arrow stand.
- First print worked great! PLA is a bit slippery, this would be even better with the end of the clips covered in tool-dip (Plasti-Dip).
- I re-uploaded the files. The set-screw one was supposed to have the screw in the center, but I missed it. It does now.

Infill:
50% or more
Notes:
- You need 0.25 or lower layer height for one with threads. The other one should work fine at 0.3mm.
This is another print that really needs at least 4 shells or really high infill to be strong with PLA.
It turned out really well with 1mm top/bottom 1.25mm walls, and 50% infill.
For best results, you will need a M6x1 tap for the threaded hole, and a die for the set screw. (If you have any metal or nylon M6 screws, you can just use them.) However at 0.25mm layer height the threads should work right off the printer.
