Nautical or Ship Cleat 2

Nautical or Ship Cleat 2 3D print model

Description

Nautical cleat for ships, boats, warfs, docks, and quays. Watertight for 3D printing, also possible to use in CGI, though might need to reduce polygon count. Model is full scale, so if 3D printing, be sure the first scale the model according to your needs.

A horn cleat is the traditional design for a cleat, featuring two “horns” extending parallel to the deck or the axis of the spar, attached to a flat surface or a spar, and resembling an anvil. Traditionally, the line from the boat should initially run to the far (left) side of the horn cleat rather than close (right) side. Cleats are a use for mooring boats and ships to docks and wharves; also used on sailboats at smaller scales for tidying and fastening various lines.

I was on a 20 year wedding anniversary with my wife on Whidbey Island about 15 years ago when I spotted an absolutely huge concrete model of a cleat designed to be used as a bench. As a retired 27 year tugboat captain, I fell absolutely in love with the idea of a huge cleat at my shop. I had a business pumping concrete, and now own a successful sign shop. I do have and use a CNC. I'm rather accomplished at 3D modeling but not as good at manufacturing the time needed to make a model, so I bought this model. I was considering selling my models on CGTrader after my buying experience but after reading the forum, I was discouraged. Doing business the way I currently do business is far more profitable than trying to sell to a Drive By Market hoping to capitalize on the fruits of other's labor. After reading the forum, I felt compelled to reply to your request for a review. As a modeler, my opinion is CG Trader takes entirely too much from the model creator sales. Under 10% and I would sell. 30%......no way. People want me to take my original ideas and products locally and sell my product in their shops taking the same 30% off the top. Just not gonna happen.
