Christmas Stocking Hook

thingiverse

We have a lovely new solid oak mantelpiece. My previous solution to hanging Christmas stockings - screwing hooks into the underside of the old one - was deemed unacceptable. I designed these hooks to go around the shelf without damaging it. Printed in "wood" PLA to vaguely match the mantelpiece. To print, i rotated the design in Cura to print on its side. I used supports to hold up the hook - which was then horizontal. Also used a adhesion bed, because I am lazy and it made it easy. Not confident enough in the strength to use once full... Scad file is provided - it's not big or clever, but I imagine the design would need adapting for your specific shelf/mantelpiece.
