So, last spring I started searching for new clips so I could use the cockpit ladder to access foredeck from cabin. No one had any lying around but Mitch Lindsay ('flexpat') offered to make some using his engineering and his son Jordan's 3D printer. After a lot of measuring and photos, we have the result! See my album 'Jon's Sceptre 23' for photos. They work perfectly (not on boat yet).
You may note that the color is a bit off for the color scheme for my boat. Not that I'm complaining mind you, but I'd like to paint them white. I've got some Rustoleum 'plastic undercoat' which is supposed to be good for all kinds of plastic, followed by a finish coat. But does any expert here have a better idea?
Anyway, if anyone needs a prototype of anything (or some clips) I think the person to talk to is Mitch. I owe him a beer or 6.
