Description

A switch is worth what its positioning is worth. This modular system combines goosenecks in three lengths, clamps for tubes of various diameters and interface plates for the switches in the catalogue and for the most widespread commercial models.

All the printing files are published under an open licence: anyone with a 3D printer can make the parts themselves and, above all, modify them for an individual person's posture. It is the item in the catalogue that most often gets adapted case by case.

Who it is for

Anyone who needs to fix a switch in a precise position, repeatable day after day.
