Summary

Rifle rod for safe storage. Made a square version (instead of round) as it's easier/neater to trim the velcro to the appropriate size.

To complete this project you will need:

  • CEN-TECH 3/16 in. x 33 ft. Fiberglass Wire Running Kit (https://www.harborfreight.com/3-16-inch-x-33-ft-fiberglass-wire-running-kit-65326.html) $8.99 at Harbor Freight

  • Velcro. I had 1" velcro strips left over from previous project.

  • Glue/epoxy. I tried several adhesives, but JB Weld 2-part epoxy seemed to work best to attach the velcro to the rifle rod. I have not had the velcro separate from the printed part.

  • optionally, you can purchase the official rifle rod industrial strength "loop" mat and staple it into the top of your safe. if you do not use some kind of loop liner, the rifle rods will pull apart the fabric in your safe.

Used a dremel to cut the fiberglass rods in half. Fiberglass rods should fit snugly in printed part. If too tight, you might have to drill them out.

With one set of fiberglass rods from Harbor Freight, I was able to make about 20 rifle rods.
