Description

Has to be printed out of PETG since PLA seems to be not compliant enough. Three perimeters with a 0.4mm nozzle (or 1.2mm wallthickness) with a layerhight of 0.3 and no infill, makes it realy lightweight and fast printing. You can decrease the print time even more if you scale the clamp down on its z-axis

Note: This is intended to work with this “thick” sort of drying line. So the line to hang your clothes on has to have at diameter of around 3mm for the pegs to work properly

If you want to do some testing: The clamping force increases with amount of layers/Infill
