Put me on the list. PayPal you now if you want. Will they use the same hole ?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I have a quick question. Im trying to take the window crank off and dont want to break it. Any advise?My truck is missing the black plastic cover off one interior door handle, and the other one was replaced somewhere along the line with a broken window crank handle. So I decided to 3D model some handles that could be machined from aluminum as inexpensively as possible (still not as cheap as I'd like, because it's complex geometry, but I did my best). I also 3D printed one to test fit, and it's pretty sturdy... I think a 3D printed one would work just fine (as I have it now, the splines fit on pretty tight - tight enough that you really have to push it on there or use the bolt to pull it on).
I just wanted to see if these things being missing or broken is a problem others have too, that is worth solving on a bigger scale (e.g. having a batch of aluminum ones made, posting the 3D printer files, offering 3D printed ones for sale, etc.)?

I plan to do the same thing for the window cranks as well.
I'm just waiting on screws from McMaster. Then they'll be available.I would be interested in a few of the inside door releases too.

Thank you, sir !I'm mostly printing COVID-19 supplies for hospital workers.
There are actually a few kinds of door handles, that I have seen, possibly more.I think the original OEM design is poor. Needs to be longer and more ergonomic. My opinion.
