NOTE: After many tests, I am unable to make this reliably support my own weight. Perhaps ASA, ABS or PC might be more suitable, but I am struggling to get sufficient strenght with PETG for this print.

Allows your Union Splitboard binding to be raised to approx. 1/2 of the full height. Mounts via one M6x10 (M6x8 if your holes are too shallow) screw, can be secured in place via additionaly using doube sided tape. Designed for Union Expedition binding, but will likely work for the newer Explorer models as well. One-bolt design allows for smaller footprint, and should not interfere with crampons use. 

Rigidity of this thing is crucial, so 100% infill is recommended, PETG seems optimal, but I guess any material would do. Extrusion multiplier of 1.05-1.10 is recommended for increased rigidity. Printing 0.3 layers and width of 0.5-0.6 is also going to increase rigidity of the model over default prusaslicer settings.

Report your success or failures, so that potential structural integrity can be improved in design.

UPDATE 2025/01/28: While V1 works fine, I noticed it is still pretty high. V2 should allow for even lower stance while maintaining the rigidity.

UPDATE 2025/04/07: V2 has wrong angles and breaks easily. V3 is thicker, with better angles, and produces a bit lower rise. Previous versions removed
