Greetings folks.
I know there are likely tons of shim 3D print files out there. I wanted to make a set that would allow me to swap them out while out on the water without taking the tail all the way off. These are the result! (Shown without the tail so you can get the idea of how they install)
Printed flat, then shaped the ”negative” shims with a heat gun.
Spent a bit of time trying to get the gap just right in the front (a straight wedge does not work).
-1.25, -1.00, -0.75, -0.50, +0.50, + 0.75, +1.00, +1.25. Colour coded so I can see that I have one in and what angle it is.
Numbers are printed on each shim, print them with the numbered side on the print bed!
The idea is quick testing with the “removable” ones, then be able to install the “right one” next time I go out.
Last time I messed with shims, it just showed me that Adrian had it right the first time
