I will probably end up changing the final design after all the comments and after more test runs of this tensioner.

Thanks Cd
If you are molding it then I would suggest rounding the exterior edges and corners. You might also want to think about putting some draft in to your design, and possibly stamping a product name, website or trademark in to the side as part of the molding process.

I hope that the sales volume is sufficient to cover the up-front cost of the tooling.
