Description

I suppose that the model could be better described as a shackle than as a carabiner. It has little in common with alpine equipment. The model uses a spring pin to hold the link halves together. The pin prints best with supports, and oriented with the two prongs horizontally (for strength in bending during installation). A relatively fine layer height is a good idea, to provide definition for the threaded parts.
