## Print Settings

 

| Setting | Recommendation |

|---------|---------------|

| Layer height | 0.2 mm |

| Walls/Perimeters | 3 minimum |

| Infill | 30%, Gyroid pattern |

| Supports | **Tree supports required** (for hook noses) |

| Support location | Build plate only |

| Material | PLA, PETG, or ASA |

 

### Important Notes

- **Holder:** Print face-down (recess side up). The hook noses overhang and need tree supports.

- **Lock:** Print flat (strip on build plate, pegs pointing up). No supports needed.

- Export holder and lock as **separate STL files** (`render_part` = "holder" / "lock") for best results.

## Assembly

 

1. **Mount the holder:** Slide the hooks into the Skådis pegboard holes from the front. Push down until the hooks snap behind the board.

2. **Insert the lock:** From the front of the pegboard, slide the lock strip into the remaining open holes that the hooks are using. The lock pegs snap in behind the board and prevent the holder from tilting.

3. **Hang your glasses:** Slide each glass stem through the slot, then lower the foot into the recess.

 

## Disassembly

 

1. Remove all glasses.

2. Use a flat scraper or spatula between the lock and the pegboard to push the lock pegs out of the holes.

3. Gently wiggle the holder while pulling forward – this helps release the hooks one by one.

 

**Tip:** Slightly reducing `lock_h_adjust` (e.g. −0.1 mm) makes future lock removal easier while still preventing tilt. But may cause some slight tilt.
