A1 Mini ready CROCHET Hook - 6mm (See my other sizes available)

 

I've had fantastic success rate printing my crochet hook designs.  It's vital that you use a clean plate and some liquid glue to ensure good adhesion.  I use pla and have found silk gives such a lovely smooth finish.  It uses 16g of filament and takes approx 1.2 hours to print.  This has been tested on an A1 Mini and prints very well.  It's overall length is 19cm. I've written some instructions below to get best results:

 

Follow these simple steps for great results…

  • Always print in a silk filament - it will give the smoothest finish
  • Work with a properly cleaned printing plate and some adhesive on the plate

I've moved the seam (line) to the back, you can change this if you prefer in Bambu Studio but I found it is visibly nicer and you do not notice it at all in your hand.  

 

FINISHING REQUIRED…

  • You may need to give the hook and shaft some gentle sanding - this depends on your printer and or filament you chose.  For the rounded front hook edge, I have used a small low grit nail file.  The hooks in the photos required just 20 secs of filing along that edge, otherwise I was able to crochet immediately with them.  If your crocheting with a courser wool then you can use wet-n-dry sanding paper to give a final polish but in most cases you can start using your hook straight from the printer.
