Small Guitar Hook

prusaprinters

<p>I have a nice three string <a href="http://loogguitars.com/">Loog guitar</a>. The neck is pretty small, so I designed and printed my own wall hook for it. (Also, folks, I am not affiliated with Loog beyond being a happy customer!)</p><p>My main goal was to make a wall hook for my guitar that would keep all parts of the guitar from rubbing against the wall, while being strong enough for me to trust it. I didn't want "explosive delamination" to send my guitar to the floor. I used a static load of 3 times the weight of my guitar hanging from the hook to test the strength, and it lasted more than a week without any visible deformation. I included a photo of my test setup.</p><p>I took a few CAD classes in college, but all my 3D printing experience before this had been with OpenSCAD. This was my first project using Fusion 360.</p><p>I wrote more about this project at my blog, <a href="https://www.feelslikeburning.com/blog/2016/06/25/small-guitar-hook/">Feels Like Burning</a>.</p><p><strong>Notes:</strong></p><p>Please, please increase the infill, and <i>do testing</i> before you hang your wonderful guitar using this!</p>
