High Strength Bag Clip - Remix

thingiverse

* I have made another remix that it can be used both as bag clip and clothespin. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4880409 All credit goes to the original designer. If you like the model, please click the original model link below and click like and probably post a make. I like the original design and planned to print a lot. It is easy to print and use only 10g of filament each. But I found it not easy to install the spring and so I made a mod. I made many version to test the spring preload. This latest version can be installed by bare fingers. Goal of this mod: - Spring easier to install - Higher strength - Easy to print It is 10% wider and the handle is a bit longer than the original model. The spring is a redraw and obviously thicker. Fillet on the edge was added to eliminate the effect of elephant foot. I removed the teeth and make it suitable for clipping clothes. I test strength with my finger. The strength is considered high enough if I feel pain. If you need even higher strength, you can scale the x-axis for the bodies and z-axis for the spring in your slicer. If you want the strength to be weaker, you may try printing with only two walls with no infill, top or bottom layer. I didn't try though.
