Ultra Mini Retractable Folding Clothes Hanger【Somersault Cloud Design】

【Essential Travel Items】

First and foremost, I thought of a clothes hanger. While there are already numerous foldable hangers available for purchase, I wanted to leverage the distinctive forming capabilities of 3D printing, as this is a 3D printing competition. Inspired by the global phenomenon of retractable swords, I conceived a retractable folding hanger. The retractable feature allows for a significant reduction in the length of the hanger's two shoulders. Furthermore, through continuous testing, I incorporated recessed areas for the shoulder straps, which serve to anchor strap-type garments in place.

To enhance the printing experience, I incorporated manual supports, which provide stability during the printing process and can be effortlessly removed. Lastly, I included a feature to elevate the experience: you can incorporate a D4X2 magnet into each of the retractable circular holes on the left and right shoulders, and two D4X2 magnets in the middle of the hook (ensure that the magnetic orientation is consistent – all magnets should have the same polarity. Utilizing N52 magnets will significantly enhance the experience).

【Additional Notes】

1. The magnet version and the standard model are identical; the magnet version offers a slightly enhanced experience by minimizing the looseness associated with the telescopic feature.

2. Before printing, just as with retractable swords, it is advisable to calibrate the material flow. This ensures a smooth and successful print on the first attempt.

3. The removal of manual supports primarily involves the circular arc support at the tail end and the recessed support for limiting, as illustrated in the image below:
