Straightliner59 Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thanks, Casey! I guess I could have worded that better. I was/am interested in others' experience with different ones, and whose is best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only do 1/24 scale, but that shouldn't be a problem with load binders. Ron G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the 3D printed chain binders are the only currently available source. Edited March 8, 2021 by Casey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakyCraftsman Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) Hey Straightliner I have a set of the ones from Shapways. They are printed in the high detail resin/plastic which makes them really detailed, but they are VERY!!!!! brittle. You cant put any tension on them or they will brake. If you can get a hold of the person thet designed them (available on Shapways site) have him print them in the white smooth detail plastic, they wont be as detailed (they'll have some fine ridges from the print process) but they will be way stronger.

vincen47 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) Moluminum had some nice resin ones, but they don’t show that they’re in stock. Same for Czech Truck Model. Very Nice set, but not in stock. Might be able to find them on eBay and/or from ST Supply. Edited March 8, 2021 by vincen47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
