Fold-up Laundry Hanger

thingiverse

My husband brought home an interesting article he found in a magazine and asked me if I could apply my new skill for creating something useful! It lets you hang up to five clothes hangers on the wall. The rod can be turned upwards when not being used so it gets out of the way. The bolts and nuts were made with the help of NUT JOB | Nut, Bolt, Washer, and Threaded Rod Factory. However, turning the arm may cause it to struggle staying upright. I will work on making it more secure by "locking" it in place better when not in use. Instructions Print each individual piece one time. The rod is 7 inches long, so printing could be tight on some platforms. In that case, you might want to position the rod at a slight angle (about 22 and a half degrees). You may also wish to shrink the dimensions for better fitting. I recommend printing the support in an upright direction just like shown in the picture. Heavy rods have enough force to cause separation of layers in your model and it would not end well. Broken parts do not mix with cleanliness. Install the frame to the wall at a stud or with anchors, securing with screws. Place the arm inside, aligning small holes from bracket and rod carefully. Pass bolt through hole from arm and bracket's holes respectively, into arm and bolt holes. Turn bolt so it can't come loose easily and insert laundry items in holes safely!
