Hi there,

 

I love this clip a lot ! But it needed some ribs so it wasn't so slippery to use on the line. My partner also wanted the teeth to be a little rounder so it wasn't so harsh on the laundry. On all of my prints the teeth were welding together, so I increased the space they are away from each other.

I've included 2 versions of each clip

  • One with ribs and teeth clearance
  • The other has these fixes and rounder teeth

I had the most luck printing the clip with 0.35mm clearance. The 0.2mm clearance hinge seemed to weld together if it was printed on anything other than 0.12 layer height - although with this setting the hinge is a little more sturdy, it took me much longer to print it. The 0.5mm clearance worked as well but the hinge is a little looser.

I printed these in PETG with 100% infill to make sure they are strong enough.

 

Happy Printing !
