Fully parametric snap hook.
Recommended parameter values:
- LENGTH should be double the width or at minimum width+4*thickness
- practical WIDTH is at least 5*thickness, a bit lower values are possible, but impractical
- smallest THICKNESS that I was able to successfully print was 3mm, but 5mm and more is recommended
- GAP should be around the same as your print line width (usually 0.4mm), but 0.36 worked the best
PLA is too rigid for this print - PET-G is strongly recommended.
This is a weaker and harder to print version of the octagonal profile snap hook (here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/771536 ). This version has a circular profile leading to poor bed adhesion and other printing issues.
DISCLAIMER: The snap rings are quite strong but under no circumstances they should be used for climbing activities, securing people or anything valuable. It's still only a plastic print.
