Standard HO Scale Horn Hook Coupler

Bill of Materials
Description
This is the older hook-horn style HO scale coupler. I designed it as a replacement for worn or missing original couplers, or for swapping back from modern couplers to this classic style. The “spring” portion is intentionally thicker so it can flex without warping, making it suitable for PLA Basic filaments.
Printed with a .2mm nozzle is kind of a must but you could get away with a .4 nozzle.
Arachne wall generator selected, as well as normal supports vs tree.
I have a lot of older Bachmann rolling stock, while most new cars I buy come with modern magnetic knuckle couplers. Replacing all the older couplers gets expensive, so I made these to use on newer cars or engines instead. It’s partly personal preference, but I figured I’d share them for others who might want the same option.
