Thanks so much for the compliment! It means a lot to me to get feedback.

Yes, initially please use the contact form on my website newton-innovations.com, we’ll see from there.

Thank you for your interest! Contact me using the contact link on my website: newton-innovations.com I don't have any written materials, but we could set up a chat to give you any details you want. kind regards, Gerrit

Most of these designs went into productions as 304 stainless steel parts. The hand-sized models are most likely also 304 - I didn't think to ask the producing partner - just specified stainless steel. 316 would be overkill, however. Of course the designs can be reproduced in a variety of materials/metals.

Thank you for the compliment. For solution #2, the bottom plate is 1.5mm, top plate 2.5mm. You can use other thicknesses, as long as you dimension the parts accordingly.

"Properly" is also in the eye of the beholder. I have dimensioned these solutions to be hand held and operated, and utilise only elastic deformation to allow reusability.. If you want to allow plastic deformation, you have other options.

They've never been tested for load-bearing capacity. If the hooks are the limiting factor, adding more of them (if you have the space) will increase the capacity. You could try FEM analysis.

The k factor was left up to the producer - I had no influence on it. They were sent a step file of the 3-D model, were not even given a flat state contour. When designing these types of solutions for my previous employer, I did send in a flat state contour to our suppliers, but had no influence on the k-values. I'm sorry I cannot help on that.

@@NewtonInnovations yess sir understand thanks!

Please tell me what you mean by fish plate joint. I looked it up and they are used for joining train tracks together.

@@NewtonInnovations Yes.. same kind of.. I m looking for guide rail joints for elevator industry..

@@hasinaranisahu4616 I've never worked with fish plate joints. What sort of problems are you experiencing? What are the drawbacks of the current designs?

@@NewtonInnovationsKeep uploading these kind of videos.. The ideas are really helpful. I m trying to simplify the existing locking arrangement of sheet metal fish plate..

@@hasinaranisahu4616 Thank you for the encouragement! I wish you success with your design. It is not always (/ever?) easy to make things simple.

I just put it on "sale" (free step file download) in my webshop (see newton-innovations.com). I don't have any 2-D drawings.
