About this model

Update 4/3/25. . It's 1/2" pvc now for either one you build. It's a little added rigidity. Center piece isn't needed. I don't provide support, but here are build instructions: www.hamradiodude.com/spike_build.pdf . 11/15/2024: Added a small fillet to help try to build strength on the part. I used ASA and Polycarbonate.. Recently for strength, I have attempted to use Polycarbonate and Carbon Fiber blends, they work pretty well so far. Video here - Important print settings: 6 walls for strength. and I used 100 percent infill. Download k8mrd murder spikes, print all 3 and enjoy.
