Cloth Hanger

thingiverse

One of my pet hates is a wet kitchen towel left laying on the kitchen sink. I've designed this small and simple swivel towel hanger to be attached using 3M VHB tape to any convenient space in the kitchen or bathroom. A real space saver which is completely 3D printed using PLA. The "rod" was printed as a square bar and fitted to the rotating cylinder in a diamante orientation for maximum strength. The rod is 7 x 7 x 135 mm. I recommend increasing the length to 165 or 185 in Cura and to print with at least 4 walls for added strength. My initial prototype had a 5 x 5 mm rod which started sagging after a while. The 7 x 7 has given good results so far with no bending. The PLA rod can always be replaced with a stainless or wooden rod and the base and cylinder can be sized up if you need to hang anything bigger. I used supports for the base. The cylinder was printed upright and no support was used.
