Hello again,

I share with you a pivot collar that can be 3D-printed that will work with SVM-45 - 12mm.

Nice work, thank you!

However, i do have a question...

How would a 3D printed screw (included in the files) compare to an off-the-shelf screw/bolt?

Have you tested it's strength to hold position?
And, have you tried to find an off-the-shelf screw/bolt and tested that against the 3D printed one?
