Description
This remix expands on the original plastic bag/paper/money clip design by introducing a mirrored dual‑bend geometry for improved grip and balance. It includes multiple gap sizes to suit a wide range of materials—from thin plastic bags to thick cardboard box flaps. Clip Variants Included Solid‑sided clips : Stronger and more durable, ideal for general use. Flexible open‑frame clips : Lightweight and adaptable, but must be printed upright to avoid support material. Note: printing upright without supports may reduce strength, so these are best for light-duty tasks. Gap Sizes Small gap : Thin bags, receipts, paper stacks Medium gap : Everyday use Large gap : Cardboard box edges—perfect for holding filament trash bags Use Cases Clipping filament waste bags to cardboard boxes Sealing snack bags Organizing papers or receipts Temporary clamps for lightweight projects General household and workshop use Print Notes All clips print support-free when oriented correctly Solid versions print flat for maximum strength Open-frame versions must be printed upright for clean geometry PLA is fine; PETG adds flexibility This remix prioritizes versatility, printability, and material compatibility , offering a practical toolkit of clips for makers, households, and workshops.
