Various Surfboard Fin Plugs - FCS Compatible for Shaping

thingiverse

A range of custom FCS style surfboard fin plug to fit the original FCS type plug fins. Measurements were taken from some spare plugs that I have sitting around from a previous board build. I have uploaded a range of commonly used cant angled plugs for use on the side fins - the files describe their cant in degrees off of vertical. For your reference -- when set flat the fins will always lean away from the side of the plug which houses the grub screw, so when positioning the side plugs on the board the grub screw should always sit nearer the center/stringer than the edges/rails. For fins without cant, as in your centre fins -- or to set cant manually -- use the file named 'FCS_Center_Plug.' I believe that they use the following grub screws in the no name e-bay ones - which you'll likely need if you plan to try and use these: 3/8" 2.4 5 MF-GS162S. --UPDATE 05/04/2017-- I've uploaded a version called FCS_Side_Plug (removed the old version) that lets you add cant to set your own angles. Also updated the file -- very quickly -- to give basic Customizer functionality. Be careful though, I haven't fine tuned it so results may vary when editing - check carefully before printing. Print Settings Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 - 0.3 mm Infill: 50 - 100% Notes: As you'll be sanding this part down slightly to get it flush after fibre-glassing it in place you'll probably want to go for quite a few layers on the top-side.
