The author describes these as skis for small planes, noting they can be scaled up to fit other airplane sizes. The author reports that printing was quick, but suggests that if a printer cannot handle a maximum overhang of 45 degrees, more supports might be required. The author notes that the skis add a little weight to the front of the plane but should not affect flying significantly. To secure them to a model, the author used paper clips bent into the holes on both sides to hold them steady.

<p>This was a very fun thing to make and I really haven't seen many around, I hope that this can help people to still enjoy there hobbies like flying airplanes in snowy conditions, as far as printing goes, it was a nice and quick, if your printer cant do a max overhang of 45 it might need more supports, which is understandable for larger scale airplanes. It does add a little weight to the front of the plane but shouldn't affect flying too much. I secured them to my model by using paper clips and bending them into the holes on both sides to hold it steady. God Luck and Thank you!</p>
