Clothespin / Clothes Peg

thingiverse

This is a clothes clip or clothespin that doesn't need a metal spring, but instead uses a plastic spring. I've used PLA to print mine, I have not tested with ABS. Assembly shown here https://youtu.be/8ksQmWpUyx8 v1: Print two Peg.stl and one PegSpring.stl to create one complete clip. Assemble by placing the two halves of the clip together over the top of the PegSpring. Push the PegSpring down into place with a screwdriver until it clicks into position. v3: Print two PegV3.stl and one PegSpringV3.stl to create one complete clip. Click the spring into place in one of the clip halves, then pry open the spring a little and click the second half into place. I use them as bag clips in the kitchen, but I'm sure they'll have many uses. Post "I made one" if you come up with a different usage.

The pictured blue clip is V2. UPDATE 25th Mar 2018: I've removed PegV2 and added PegV3 and PegSpringV3.
