LOL. Pretty clever. That's one way to find out how much height you need.
That's just damn clever! My hat's off to you!

Will not get that hot. That plastic is tough! But how does he keep it from rotating? Glue, I guess. Gotta hand it to him for thinking & cleverness!

Don't let this get out into the general public! There will be a "shortage" of zip-ties, and the cost will go thru the roof, much like percussion caps!!
No need to worry about rotation of the blade since your eye is the rear sight. Just rotate the tiller until the blade is at 12 o'clock. I guess we can call this a 14th century zip gonne. (Boooooo!)

I'm ready to market my sight package - three genuine zip ties and complete instructions, postage paid to your door, just $10. Attach all three, graduating the blade length, and you have the world's first handgonne with express sights!Don't let this get out into the general public!

Genius is it's own rewardDon't laugh. Not only is it a quick and easy way to add a front sight to my handgonne, but it's height adjustable as needed. OK, go ahead and laugh!
@Whitworth, thanks, but it's a light year from that. Merely observation.
