Marker paperclip

thingiverse

This extremely slim paperclip is what you position on the edge of a page to identify a particular row. I built it as similar objects found in stores were excessively thick, rendering them inconvenient for comfortable writing when they fell on top of the one with the clip. Mine measures only ~0.5mm in thickness and functions admirably within a notebook. Print Settings Printer Brand: Ultimaker Printer: Ultimaker 2 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 40µm Infill: 70% Notes: I was compelled to reprint those several times over and, in doing so, I discovered that I had lost my printer settings for this print. The result was subpar quality. Following a detailed analysis of those settings, I have incorporated a .gcode file that you can use to load the desired settings. To summarize: layer height - 0.04mm, shell thickness - 0.4mm, bottom/top thickness - 0.08mm, infill before perimeters, fill density - 70%, initial layer thickness - 0.12mm, and print speeds all at 20mm/s, with a travel speed of 40mm/s. My apologies for the dense text; it seems Thingiverse disrupts list formatting within this field. This item is particularly thin and printing it with Cura slicer's default settings results in just 1-2 layers, yielding an impractical object. I was utilizing my Ultimaker2 at the time, which featured a heated print bed - essential for successfully using very slim initial layer. The slower speed minimizes ripping of deposited strands. Outcomes can vary, so use your own judgment. Post-Printing It's likely you will need to utilize a thin knife to tidy up the gaps between the clip parts within. As it tends to smear around in the first layer. How I Created This Discovering OnShape, Ready for printing, Cardboard prototype, initial successful print, final edition.
