Hi guys,

in this thread we rebuild the missing tow bar of the HL-Tiger.

Image

Image

As you can see, there is something where the tow bar belongs.

But it is not complete.

So lets complete it.

Image

Lets take a 2mm thick poly plate.

Draw the details.

Image

Than drill the holes and mark the edges of the parts.

Image

Cut and grind a little bit.

Image

Prepare as shown.

Image

The difference between the two edges in this case is 2mm.

It might be different with your result.

Image

So the upper part needs to be equal to that difference.

Fill the space between the two parts with poly.

Image

When gluing the parts, use a 3mm drill to center the holes.

Image

After drying grind the component and adapt it.

Image

After mounting it should look like this.
