Presenting the BUTTKNUCKLE!

I get bored and make stuff in CAD. Sometimes I make something that isn't absolute nonsense.

I know this sort of thing already exists, but I'm happy with the result produced by my 20 minutes of design.

 

Here is another picture of the "armor" part.

A request has been made to add a bottle opener. It'll be in the next version.

 

That took 20 minutes?

First time?

I kid, I kid.

Oh, and what is it!

 

I'm doing random designs to get familiar with functions in a new CAD program. This was a warm up because I thought of the name in the shower lol

This is a trailer hitch skid plate that keeps the hitch from getting snagged. It's definitely not optimized and I did zero measurements. I'm willing to tune the design and pump some out as weld together kits if there is actual interest, but there won't be

 

I don't want to know what you were doing in the shower to come up with that name.

 

I like it, when I learned cad almost a decade ago I just started designing a full suspension mountain bike. To me it is the best way to learn.

 

Can you make one of those hitch mounted toilet seats?

 

I, um, now I might not want to admit how long I've been doing this.

 

you have already havent ya lol

 

I hope you mean doing cad not an activity involving knuckles and butts...

 

A trailer hitch skid plate lol nice.

 

Yes.

I do mean CAD. The knuckle thing was just once. I swear.

 

I vote he call it the BumperPumper

 

For driving in reverse? #Confused

 

In the beginning of this thread I thought butt knuckle must be the latest version of moose knuckle, but now I’m pretty sure I was wrong, so very, very wrong…

 

@Kbar Here you go!

 

If you want. But it keeps the hitch receiver from catching when your departure angle isn't good enough.

 

I kinda wanna see a version with a big beefy knobby pneumatic tire. Just roll on over all your problems

 

I've been wondering what to do with my spare now that doesn't fit under the bed. Now I know
