Who said HT lead brackets aren't available

Full set of Black, tried the blue one but doesn't quite go with red leads

but no more saggy untidy leads

Where did you get these from
I thought I was luck to get some in a set of leads I purchased from Rockauto’s in the states

But I made them to fit 8mm leads as I believe the standard is 7mm?

I'm happy to make these if anybody is interested. For those that are familiar with 3D printing they take over 13hrs to print as I make them as a solid unit for strength and not hollow, which is the standard procedure, which in turn means they use quite a lot of filament (material) so not cheap on material or electric. They're printed in ABS which has a melting point of 500F or 260c. At the moment I can make them in Black or Blue, looking to do some in red but need to make an order up for the filament as buying a single roll isn't cheap (£5.00 postage on top of the price for a single roll). I can't do them any cheaper than £10 for a full set to full members only

If anybody is interested just let me know and I can drop them off at fest

My brother is looking into getting me some sample MK1 Capri clips for me to model and print as he has a friend that needs some, seen two for sale on eBay for £23.00
