Washingline/String wallmount

prusaprinters

Made for the “last meter” contest. Although all four parts together can be printed for just under 5m filament (tight gcode settings to fulfill the contest requirement, not tested with them, I have no Prusa printer yet, but a comparable setting worked with my printer (see images)), you can/should print each piece separately with your favourite settings instead! This way you might need more than 5m alltogether, but each single piece is far smaller (~0.8-2m filament needed for one of them) and therefore easier to print with your last meters. Assembly guide: base A and lid A fit together, same for base B and lid B. The pieces have little bars (each 0.5mm higher than the previous one) to be used for squashing your string/line between them (this way all strings in range ~1-4mm diameter should work). Put base and lid together with the line/string between them (check images), then use a screw to mount them onto the wall. Hint: before fully tighten the screw you can rotate the pieces to  get a proper tension onto your line/string.Note: the images are made with a previous draft (after that print I just finetuned the model), the files uploaded instead are optimized and need less material, but basically work the same as the ones shown in the images CategorySettingCommentNozzleanyin range 0.25-0.8mm none should be problematic (tested with 0.6mm)Layer height0.125mm or 0.25mmMany elements are (multiples of) 0.5mm height, → 0.125 and .25mm are recommendeddimensionsabout 4cmx1.2cmdiameter 4cm, highest piece 1.2cmsupport structurenoneno overhangs whatsoeverperimeter2 or moreno special things to consider infill5-50%no special things to considermaterialall nonflex materials work complexityeasyevery printer should be able to deal with this modelextra itemsscrews, washing linefor a full make you need 2 screws (30mm or longer) and a line, i.e. a washing line
