Description
It's a medium sized clothespin, but as a single minimalistic part and print-in-place. It uses ‘snake-bite' style teeth to hold material together because it doesn't have any extra force pushing the clamp closed.
The force is a little less then you'd get from a clothespin with a metal spring inside (or at least one that has a separate part to tension it,) but it's sufficient for most clothespin usages. Use it when you don't have enough clamps lying around for sewing, to close chip bags and much more. Or use it as a case study for your own clothespin designs!
How to print
Need a much tinier clothespin and it's OK if it has less clamping force?
