Materials:

  • Smooth dowel rods made of beech wood are suitable as round bars (tested 6mm, 8mm, and 15mm).

  • For screwing, M3 wood screws without shaft and with countersunk head are suitable. The length should be at least ½ of the diameter.

  • A thin steel wire rope (1-2mm) can be used for tensile force absorption.
