Reliable and simple design for rods and retaining clips that I created as part of my Ornithopter design work. 

I've broken them out into a separate print in a common scale, as on their own they will be both quite useful for both my own designs - and hopefully for others to scale and use for their own machines! I use this at many different scales to provide 1 degree of rotational freedom to a mechanism while preventing it from slipping from a slot - all without superglue. This gets me closer to 100% printed mechanical devices.

The .stl of the rod has a regular radius of 5mm, and a length of 5cm. The .blend model has a normalized version at a radius of 10mm and a length of 100mm.

I'd love to see what you all use it for, so please post your makes and remixes that leverage it!
