Reply to "3D printed coupler pocket to mount Kadees to AtlasO cars - thread updated with photos and test results with a 30mm wide pocket"

Mario it looks good. I would widen it just a tad to allow for more swing( side to side movement). The ability to  use as a draft gear box for long hood forward, as a cushioned draft gear box is a great idea as there is nothing out there for this application. My only concern is that there isn't enough length to provide ridged strength under the box car to prevent bending as the plain white will bend under tension. The only difference between 3RS and 2R is the track   2R guys have the same issues with radius of curves like we do..  So if the design works for 3RS then it will work for 2R. Also did you get my Email. ?
