Description
Klamerka, spinacz, żabka… There are many words in Polish to describe this device. The device that does one thing - keeps the laundry in place and doesn't let the wind blow it away. However, laundry clips you can buy, are designed to be used with the rope or wire - not with metal dryers that use tubes. Not mentioning that those on the market tend to disassembly over time.
So I designed one that works with tubes and since it's only one piece - it shouldn't break or disassemble.
I went through three iterations and I decided to include all three files because each design has advantages and disadvantages.
Print it flat on bed. No supports or brims are required. All reasonable settings should work. more perimeters and infill should result in sturdier piece. I tested mine with PETG but it should also work with PLA and ABS. It prints in less than 10 minutes and you can print many pieces at once.
For best results try not to place seam where the clip contacts with the laundry so the contact area is smooth.
