The Versatile Frag Plug Project.
- Thread starter spinycheek
- Start date
I've been spending almost all my time getting the first two pieces into production and haven't been able to prototype much. However, I'm finally done! Those are now on the market and shipping. I can start work again on the other parts.
This is the latest project for the softie smasher. It's a dual material attachment with removable, rubbery netting. This should work better than the previous design. I got the frame prototype today and can start making the netting portion. I should have something semi-functional within a week.

I saw your advertisement on the nano-reef forum. It caught my eye because the discussions here and went to your website. Your site looks great! A little feedback for your ad though. The black rotating 3d model of your plug does not "STAND OUT". It's too dark to see much of the detail and kind of looks like a black blob, until you look closer. If I were average Joe, probably wouldn't have known what it was. I would recommend changing the color scheme a little.

I am actually working on this today. I'm moving from a non-movable single piece to a springy clamp tool with moving parts. I kept having poor performance with the designs I was making, so although slightly more complex to make, the newer sps-clip should work way better. So rather than chasing something that seems doomed, I'm taking a new path.
Up to you, I'm not quite what i'd say in a rush. They are just sitting on a rock in my QT so they are fine at the moment. I was also considering a trying a method on RC a few years back with sps dangling them from fishing line in the tank. Gets more light and flow supposedly on all sides and makes for good growth?
I put up a page on the website that has various 3D printable files. You can download the STL files yourself to print, or you can outsource the printing with a company called Shapeways (there's a button that takes straight to them). I have 7 things on there now, but will adding more each day and I'll make sure to throw the original SPS clip up there so you can have something in the mean time.
Plus, I'm sending in my paperwork to sponsor MASC this week. Then I can actually link to things.
