Cool idea for those with the same kind of awning track. FYI -- a lot of public libraries have 3D printers now so takie the design files to them on a flash drive (mine used to let me submit them through their website but stopped doing that). It would be nice if @TTrebuild had shared his design files.

bro. those are awesome! i'd buy a set today, no hesitation! wish i could!

holy shit just get a different trailer does this have sentimental value or something?

Is there anyway I can get the pattern

Can you send this cad link

Did you ever finish this build? Really curious if you still have it and how well its holding up. I may to do a partial rebuild and wondering if doing things better than the manufacturer (not hard to do) makes a difference.

Hi man do you still work around solidworks

I might have to rebuild my rv from the frame up, too. It's not that bad.

Ok im literally 38 seconds in and I feel a little better about my situation.. but I'm still keeping cool. Bein overwhelmed is lame . Ha

Are you selling these? or selling the 3d printer file? I can provide my email.

Can you sell me some of these

Yep. Guess mine will just remain broken...

That's a good idea . My C channel doesn't have the rain gutter I would probeley have to sew a cord to tarp.

Hey hi there!! Are in Vegas dear?

I would like to buy some I need that

Black? Really?

do you have the STL file I'll send you my email if you can forward it to me 😅😅

Wanna sell me a set?

I'll take 10 of em . Hit me up us old guys who are not computer savvy and I dont own a 3d printer.

Very good!

Need to get a patent on this my friend! I would buy this product !!!👍🏼

I am sick and tired of these people dancing in video commercials

If one is poor, can't afford a 3D printer.

How much you want for some?

If I had a 3D printer it would be alot cooler lol but thats awesome!

The only critique here is that if you have any wind it will lift the tarp off the hooks. Drilling a hole across the top of the hook and then sliding in a locking pin would fix this problem. Other than that this is a wonderful idea. Are you planning on selling these for those who do not own a 3d printer.

How do I purchase some of these from you?

I thought you might print a part that slides along the channel, rather than snap in, so it can’t be pulled out accidentally?

The piece that slides in the awning track is called a awning rope. Most, but not all, awing ropes have a seaming tails, but another way you can actually thread a rope through the end of a tarp. Most good tarps are stitched and one can make a small cut in a corner of the tarp and guide the/a rope through to the other end. Most awing tracks take a 3/8" rope, but check yours! You can probably find something at a home improvement store and DYI your own rope. There are other KZbin folks that show different applications for it. I am going the rope with a tail and will be attempting to heat weld the tail of the rope to a tarp. TTrebuild, you have a thing here, you should capitalize on it

Can I bye some of these from you plzzzzzzzz I think I would need about 10

Shapeways?

Absolutely brilliant. Can I buy some off of you please? Have been looking for precisely this type of widget for years!!!!

Nice that you had the window out on a workbench. I'm trying to repair the mechanism with the window still installed in the RV. Very helpful video, though, thank you.

Very clever.

Dear god.... what a lost cause. I cannot imagine the amount of time and money it would cost to rebuild this. Unless you want to do it as a project for “fun,” this looks like something to walk away from...

Nice, how did you get your template for your osb, did you remove the truss.

What did you use for the trim? Glue and type of screws? Ty

So where's the build up videos?

Great demonstration sir plz make more videos like this thank you

What are you talkin about that door is perfectly fine, it has duct tape on it you're good

Perfect !… the more so that i have (you gave us) absolutely no clue abut what it is for instead of clamping, which to my feeble mind is something that has already been solved since some time ago

Great idea! Yes I agree this is a poor mans DIY awning. 3D printers are cheap theses days. Hell I got mine for under $200 dollars and I've used it to make handles, clips, caps, and all kinds of misc stuff for the RV. That being said please post your clip files or sell them. I would print them in a heart beat!

Where did you purchase your ipe hardwood?

I came here from your RV aluminum truss You tube video, and every single one of my RV windows doesn't work. thanks again for posting the fix!

Thanks so much for posting your repair! I have sagging aluminum rv trusses too. Did you put the OSB on both sides of your trusses, and what glue did you use? you mentioned Polyurethane, is that a construction adhesive like PL Premium, or Gorilla glue?

Clickbait👎🏾

this is well made and useful, hope you share the part on thingiverse !

What a royal pain this looks like.

Why black ? Super hot in the summer
