LGB Knuckle Couplings

This is a set of working knuckle couplings for G scale railways.
These fit "standard" LGB fittings.
The "fixed" coupling is a single self sprung part.
Each coupling comprises the body, a small retaining cliip and the knuckle its self.
For free movement I use a 8mm round file after printing to clear the 8mm dia hole in the coupling and make sure it moves freely on the body housing.
There is also a moving knuckle version that uses a bent wire interlock that enables it to unlock prototypically. I use this version in my servo operated couplings.
The three "Body variants" work with different LGB bodies to avoid having to cut the coach/wagon /loco bodywork. I use the middle one for my 3D printed wagons.
