FuzNuz Break Away Stirrup
Description
Update 5/31/2020: Added a new design with a wider top and deeper grooves as the test prints I made had an issue with the bar having a high tendency to just spread the hoop apart and fall right through at about 50 lbs of downward force. Little too much breakaway and not enough stirrup. The files marked new design should help to correct this. 100% INFILL ONLY I MAKE NO GUARANTEES ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF THIS PRODUCT IN ANY FUNCTION -- USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! This is a design I am currently working for a break away stirrup you can 3D print at home for custom sizing and a comfortable fit. I currently don't have access to a 3D printer so I am posting the design up without having done a test print first. If anyone makes a print of it please post a make of it and I will submit your picture as the cover artwork for this design. The slots where the bar should slide out are directed towards the front of the horse when attached to the saddle. They should be able to slide fairly smoothly out of the slots and allow for an easy disengagement. I recommend to use ABS or PETG for this project if available, and again both components are meant to be as solid as possible. I have not done a verification print so this is entirely as is and I don't know how strong it will turn out being. 11/18/19: Added a version with stamped in lettering. This should reduce cuts and scrapes to the user and horse. The old design will be removed once I get my test prints and confirm the fit and function of this design.
