Description

I was annoyed at the limited and expensive options for managing cables on my airsoft gear until I remembered I could design and print my own!

I included a pdf of my specific picatinny rail for reference, I'm sure you can adjust the width scale slightly if yours is a little different. The clips fit snugly but you can still pop it off with your fingers. Anything up to 3mm dia cable should fit nicely and there are single and double versions for running cables on either side of your rail. The clips are indexed so they won't slide and will take up 2 slots - approximately 2cm long.

The clips are designed to be printed on end and require no supports. I haven't tested in the field yet so I might adjust a little if I run into issues.

Update: used three outdoors in 3degC weather for 5 hours and had no problems. They worked very well. Now I just need to actually put some cables under them...

Update: now have a 3mm cable running under the clips and I feel like it's the most brilliant thing I've ever designed
