Description
Introducing the hexagon doorstop - a sleek and ‘hex-traordinary’ solution to keep your doors in place with a touch of hexagonal sophistication. Sporting a multi-faceted geometric pattern made up of hexagons, the best shape in the world! This doorstop not only secures doors but is a 'hex-citing' addition to any room. It is a 'hex-cellent' conversation starter for any hexagon enthusiast.
For the best hexagonality, I recommend printing it with Hex Prusament filament and honeycomb infill, because hexagons are the bestagons.

You can print it in two different orientations without supports, each with its advantages and disadvantages:
| Orientation | (default) | (hexagonal pattern towards the build plate) |
|---|---|---|
| Advantages | The slanted side with the hex pattern looks smoother. | Can be printed in any filament. |
| Disadvantages | Requires printing in a filament with decent bridging performance, like PLA. | The slanted side with the hex pattern has stair stepping effect, which doesn't look as nice, but might be beneficial in keeping the door open more tightly due to the increased roughness. To minimize the effect, choose the smallest layer height possible. |
