Rope Tensioner

I designed this to replace the existing rope tensioners that came with my tent.

I've added three sizes, but you can scale the model as desired. Add some to your backpack in case of emergencies when camping or hiking or put a handful in you toolbox as you never know when you may need them. I even scaled one up to use as a keyring. 

I printed mine in PLA+ but changed the wall loop setting to 6 loops to ensure the part was printed in solid loops to increase its stength.

Set up instructions:

1- Connect your rope/cord to the small loop on the bottom (I sewed mine on as I don't plan on removing them).

2- Loop the rope around your fixing point eg: tent peg, tree branch, etc.

3- Pass loop through centre of part.

4- Secure loop around side lug and tension rope as required.
