Description

This is a print-in-place carabiner which works by a compliant spring to open. When printed horizontally it provides quite a bit of strength. Because it is really stylish too, it can also be worn as e.g. a keychain addon. 

If you have really good bed adhesion, you don't need any brim or supports. Otherwise, a Brim (mouse ears work quite well) is advised. 

Model is scalable and layer height does not matter. Infill percentage depends on personal preference and expected strength.

Great print, just know the AMS TPU is too flexible for this ;). I'll reprint in PLA soon

Works surprisingly well but probably best suited for keychains and not any medium load applications

Cool model - but there's a little too much lateral movement on the arm for this to be trusted for holding securely.

The print quality was good, but I am not at all satisfied with the design The spring is very loose and the gap where the carabiner meets is very large Overall, I find the carabiner very unstable The movable part also has too much lateral play It does not hold together, rendering it unusable However, I thought the idea itself was excellent In my opinion, the strength and gaps should be optimized here, then the design will certainly be good
