Update: these might ride too close to the ground depending on your printer and your robot. Sand the bottom face down (or modify the file if you choose) so the front edge is flush with the ground.


Do you run a Force Knight kit? Tired of getting your forks ripped off by pesky drum spinners? Unsure what to do?

I have optimized the plastic antweight wedgelet design through my 29-4 record with my plastic antweight drum, and now, Force Knight builders can enjoy the same technology! 

I would run these whenever fighting opponents that have large width drum spinners. Those opponents are more likely to mangle the default long forks that the design comes with, but these wedgelets should deflect and absorb the impact of their spinner.

The wedgelet is designed to print right side up with supports on the raised bottom face. It seems strange but it is necessary to have that small flat surface at the front to absorb the energy from drums into the ground to better deflect them.
