The size and number of insulators (with labels) can be easily modified in OpenScad model which is included.
All files in ZIP archive: OM2JU_Linked_dipole_Insulators.zip
Quick building instructions of complete Linked dipole are in OM2JU_Linked_Dipole.pdf
The insulators can be used also for other shortwave antenna types, e.g. EFHW / End Fed HalfWave dipole.
Parameters in OpenScad file:
MY_LENGTH = 35.0; // length of insulator in mm
MY_THICKNESS = 2.0; // thickness of insulator in mm
MY_WIRE_HOLE_DIAM = 1.8; // diam. of holes for insulated wire (make it larger than actual wire)
MY_INSULATORS = ["10m","12m","15m", "17m", "20m","30m","40m","60m"]; // list of insulators
MY_ROWS = 2; // multiples of each insulator, e.g. 2 = 2x from each one
