Heavy duty buckle used to level up my laptop bag with a more industrial look. The buckle is super strong, easy to install on an existing bag without the need to sew. I'm using it on my daily laptop bag and it works well. Straps are easy to adjust yet the buckle locks the webbing once tension is applied. Looks great printed in transparent PETG, but make it your own. 

The buckle is designed so it the closed loop of webbing (eg the webbing attached to your bag or strap can be slid over the small slit on the buckle. The other side is used to feed your strap through and will lock in place when tension is placed on the webbing. 

I've used this buckle to replace the boring buckles on my North Face messenger bag where the webbing was 38mm wide. I simply cut the old buckles off, then slid the looped webbing through the slot and it was done. No sewing or cutting required. 

The buckle was modelled in Fusion but I've also modelled the buckle in OpenScad - so you can adjust the size and parameter to generate several different sizes as required. OpenScad files are included in the download.
