Camping Stove Hose Clip

thingiverse

Clips keep my camping stove's hose neatly organized. They suit the hose's diameter perfectly, which is 11.5mm. A design file is available on Onshape at https://cad.onshape.com/documents/f5ab7b6628a2f11827b75a82/w/2725c3fecea848d5b0e860eb/e/1df5cc0b870e2efce6544b55. I found that printing two clips and placing them far apart (at least 80mm) on the print bed works best. This prevents the radiant heat from deforming the print. It's also essential to slow down the print speed to prevent delamination from the bed. The clip was printed with a layer height of 0.2mm. I prefer using PETG because it offers excellent strength and flexibility. Only one perimeter is needed, and low infill allows for some flex.
