Description

A hook that releases item when yanked-on, instead of damaging it. And it doesn't let go in the upward direction if jostled or whatever. Especially good for bumpy road trips and exciting boat/plane rides! Holds your gloves, hat, and doesn't let them fall in the bilge or fly out the window!

A strong, compliant mechanism clamp, suitable for attaching temporary holiday decorations to doors, stockings near a fireplace, bags of chips to a drawer, papers to a computer monitor, small tools to a 3D printer, etc.

Print as-is, without supports. Use a razor to separate layers in the hinge, should they become welded together. Or separate into objects and use supports. There “should” be enough space between the layers to be “self-supporting". But newer slicers will complain, thinking you want parts to be joined. Don't let slicers weld the hinge together!

Insert filament into the holes to act as pins. The large model accepts 2.85mm filament in case you have roles of large-format filament laying around. Rivet the ends by melting them with a soldering iron, a cigarette lighter, or a hot rock from the fire pit (what are you a caveman?). If you have thick skin or wear gloves, squish the softened filament ends with a finger to form the rivet.

Attach finished hanger to surfaces with double-sided (DS) tape. Or use screws.
 

The h mechanisms have a hinge in the middle. The others open up farther for bulky items.


There are large and small hooks of both types.
