Can you be a bit more specific with this. Visuals also help 🙂

There are several tutorials dealing with threaded bolts. In your case you can form the ring/eye part above the threaded part using the Sweep tool.

These look a bit tiny to 3D print to me. What’s bad about standard metal ones?

Best,

Tommy

Thanks Tommy.

yes, for the threaded part I’d check out this tutorial: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khAnIZ09uYQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khAnIZ09uYQ)
