Tired of flimsy holders that you can't trust to handle the weight of your sweet looking gear? Look no further! This **SUPER strong** helmet holder is engineered to keep your helmet secure and accessible. Whether it's a motorcycle helmet, a racecar helmet or just a bicycle helmet, this holder ensures your prized possession is showcased with style.

The holder's design allows for complete freedom in how you present your helmet, just by tilting and rotating it how you want it to be displayed.

Designed with durability in mind, the holder can support more than just helmets. Hang your jacket with confidence, knowing that the holder won't let you down.
(DISCLAIMER: While the holder is incredibly strong, it's designed specifically for helmets. For optimal safety, I advise using it only for its intended purpose. Holding helmets)

Pros:
- Only uses 2 strong screws
- Looks cool with gear on
- Easy to print

Cons:
- To some it might look like a um… a um… you know what…

Very loose fit on these parts, use glue.

@Flobi

The fit should be tight. I've only tested the fit with PLA though. So maybe that's the reason for a slight deviation in tolerances. Good to know. :) Maybe i should release versions of the ball with different tolerances so that people can choose how loose/tight they want it.

Nice - printed smaller ones for the kids

@Flobi

Haven't thought about using it for bicycle helmets. Nice! :D

@Flobi

Sup everyone. The V2 is coming along and i'm on track to releasing it this week. :) Some new features so far are: - Easier mounting due to added holes through the front part of the wall mount. - Notches for accent pieces, so that the wall mount can be stylized a bit - Detachable key hook that can be placed in any of the 4 side holes

Nice design. Strong print

@Flobi

Thank you! That's a big helmet. :D

@frankdubbs

Nice model! Seems tough as heck. I'm trying PLA see if it holds up. This was printed in black galaxy and it looks great and seems pretty strong.. Still waiting on the sphere to finish printing, but even without it it holds the helemet quite nice. Wish I had spot in the garage for a coat hanger on it as well.

@Flobi

Thank you :D And yeah. First time i printed it out myself i was like... Holy shit, this is a freakin' STRONG boi. Looks kinda weird... Especially with the "tip" lol... But yeah, surprisingly strong. But as you mention yourself, PLA might not be the best in the long run. But time will tell i guess. :)

Great design, but it is difficult to install due to the arm blocking the screw holes so you need a very stubby screwdriver or 90 degree adaptor

The designer has replied

@Flobi

I'm currently working on a version 2 that will be easier to mount. I think i can have it ready in a couple of days. Maybe a weeks time or so. :)

Thanks for your work, just wanted to print it but then saw you are working on the V2. Guess I'll have to wait :D, looking forward to it!

@Flobi

Replying to @maximator :

Haha. I better get it done asap then! :D

@AlexNoviSad

Would like to suggest something that's easy to add. A key hook beneath it :D I think it'd make a lot of sense. Also, you could add a field where people could add logos. Good print and thank you for your contribution!

The designer has replied

@Flobi

Great ideas! Hope i can find the time to make a V2 or a version with a hook for a key. :) I'll remember to reply back to you if i get around to make it.

@im.jackharvest

Replying to @Flobi :

Don't forget to add holes through the shaft so you can optionally install this with a long screwdriver instead of a stubby one.

@Flobi

Replying to @im.jackharvest :

Got it sir :D

@Pumba666

I designed something very similar, also printed in PLA... after a good year the material became brittle and broke.So I would be careful about hanging my expensive helmet on my PLA holder.

The designer has replied

@Flobi

I'd suggest printing it in PETG. :P

@Pumba666

Replying to @Flobi :

at least PETG, better ABS 😉

@Flobi

Replying to @Pumba666 :

Yep. :)

just wondering what’s the best size of screws to use if anyone has multiple which screws they found best for the job

The designer has replied

@Flobi

It's designed with a 5mm hole. But you can go down in thickness and overall size depending on the mounting surface. Mine is installed on a brick wall, so i used some chonky 5mm screws with wall anchors. I wanted to be absolutely sure that it never falls down. :) So in general my advise would be to use thick screws if possible. Better safe then sorry i guess. :D
