Description

PDF

An easy to print and use clip for keeping plastic bags closed inspired by those hoodie drawstring clips:

Print instructions:

  • Print in the orientation the STLs are imported
  • Use supports - tree (organic) supports work perfect
  • Use at least 3 perimeter walls for strength (4 is even better)

To assemble, just put all parts together, super easy.

 

No support version on the link below (perfect for PETG):

The no supports version also slides smoother due to being printed horizontally.

 

STEP file included. Feel free to remix and share, but please use the attribution feature.

Internal spring based on obijuan's design:
