3D model description

A piston-styled hook meant especially for hanging a towel, a bathrobe or clothes in the bathroom.

https://youtu.be/dFtJqVgIH8U

3 styles available:
1 - with one side of the connecting rod prolonged to form a hood
2 - most real-world look, meant to be hung connecting rod upwards (use 2 screws to mount on the wall)
3 - like 2 but with with an additional printed screw to be mounted in the additional threaded hole in the connecting rod - to let you adjust the length of the actual part where you will hang the towel or clothes.

As a gearhead I couldn't come by any less car-related idea to hang towels on the bathroom wall. They correspond with the style of my ceiling- and mirror lights which resemble air cooled single piston engine heads.

I made a remake of the design before posting here after the picture of the two styles was taken so you can expect higher poly look. The render shows the remade hooks.

3D printing settings

nozzle: 0.4-0.6
layer height: 0.2 or lower recommended, should also be ok at 0.3
add support, touching buildplate
little or no infill should work fine
