This is a small adapter to insert on top of the ship's pegs. This adapter allows to tilt your ship at three different angles (-45, 0 45).
Pros:
Only one part to print (5 min)
No other parts to buy (e.g. magnets)
Steady orientation.
No need to alter your mini or peg. Just insert the adapter on the peg, and the ship on the adapter.
Reversible. You don't want it anymore? just remove it from your peg.
Cons:
Only three orientations
A gentle push has to be applied to snap the ship in different positions. This might break a ship peg that was already fragile due to a former repair. In that case, tilt your ship by just removing it from the adapter and insert it back in its new desired position.
Printing
Works well with PLA, 0.4 nozzle and 0.2 mm layers. Add support and pop it out easily by inserting a thin stem in the middle hole. You might also have to add a brim for the part to stay in place during the print.
Usage
In general, it's easier to initially insert the ship in a tilted position, and then you can snap it in any other position while staying in the adapter. Be gentle while doing so by holding the ship and the peg between your fingers near the adapter.
ship_swab_S is for the ships with a small base.
ship_swab_L_XL is for the ships with a large base and extra-large base. This category is very heterogeneous as the peg on the ship side can have different lengths. To accommodate those various situations, the adapter can be set in three different configurations:
The ship's peg is long enough (e.g., U-Wing): Install the adapter upward, same as for the small bases
The ship's peg does not protrude at all (e.g., Firespray): Install the adapter half way, in-between two base pegs.
The ship's peg is not long enough (e.g., Millennium Falcon): The ship will then fall under it's own weight when tilted because the base of its peg does not buttress against the inner wall of the adapter. In that case, install the adapter downward. The buttressing is then performed by the triangle extremity of the base peg. In this configuration, the ship needs to be slightly moved upward to unlock it when tilted at an angle. Push it downward to lock it the 0-degree position (see video below).
