Trouble with road pieces

I went through a few basic iterations and ended up with these. They fit right into the molding of the original road pieces and hold on about as well as the originals, even when I used one on both halves of the joint.

I printed the "final" versions at the highest quality setting in Creality Slicer 3.8 and they took about 10 minutes on my Ender 3 Pro. They are a loose press fit in the molding so you might want to glue them in place. If the clip is too tight just file the bump down slightly after printing.

I don't remember off the top of my head if the Timberyard road pieces have exactly the same molding features underneath, I haven't gotten a copy of the set out of storage yet. It may end up cracking the protruding part of the opposite connector, that road is brittle enough that I've seen that big oddly shaped piece broken off.
I have a website where I have been writing about and photographing many of the sets and pieces that I find interesting.
