Description
I needed replacement clips to hold the glass into the screendoor frame. Â The originals were yellow and had snapped with age. Â
I traced the last clip (yellow) that snapped. Â Then kind of made a guess as to how big the snapped off portion used to be. Â I then used Onshape to bring in the image and use a Spline trace to create the first version. Â I ended up melting the first few prints using a lighter to find the best angles. Â
After that I kept making the curve in OnShape more acute so that the clips help better and better. Â
I printed them in PETG and spiral vase mode with a 0.6mm nozzle. Â This gave them a lot of springiness.
