Elephant Shower Ring Stopper

During my youth group's last retreat, I faced a familiar predicament: the shower curtain bunched towards the center of the rod despite my efforts to keep it against the wall. Showering in shared spaces often means struggling for privacy. The Elephant Stopper solves this issue by sticking onto the shower rod with friction fit and holding a shower ring against the wall, allowing for private showers. It can also hold towels or clothes and is customizable in color. 3D printing is ideal for manufacturing as it's accessible and cost-effective, with multiple stoppers being printed simultaneously in some cases. I used FDM style and ABS material for my prototype, but rubber-like filaments would provide better results due to their cohesive and flexible nature. I am a student at Westlake High School.
