Wall hooks fully customizable

Since Thingiverse does not allow to upload zip files I recommend to download the following zip from my website: http://bechele.de/wallhook.zip This makes the installation very simple Otherwise download all and put it into one single directory.

This thing is a fully customizable wall hook generator for OpenScad. You may create your own design just by setting some parameters in the OpenScad Customizer. To use the generator, you need to have OpenScad installed onto your computer. The thing comes along with a zip file containing a few 2D SVG sample files that shall show you the possibilities of the wall hook creator.
The OpenScad file WallkookV1.scad is intended to be used in conjunction with the OpenScad Customizer.

The thing consists of the elements BasePlate, Mounting holes,Text, SVG plate relief, SVG Hook and Standard hook.
Any of the elements may be activated or de-activated which results in the element becoming part of the output or not. None of the elements is mandatory, howevver if you de-activate all, you get an empty output.

A special function is the "SVG Hook". It created a cloth hook out of two 2D SVG shapes that are extruded into two solid rails, where only the intersecting part ist taken as the hook body. This gives you a wide range to create your own custom hooks. Have a look at the hooks directory in the samples to get an idea how it works.

To be able to easily preview the desired SVG in windows, I recommend to install the explorer extension for windows: https://github.com/tibold/svg-explorer-extension/releases

Installation:

Download the WallhookV1 zip file and unpack it into a desired directory on your hard disk.
Then start OpenScad and open WallhookV1.scad
Make sure the customizer is visible in OpenScad (Window pulldown menu -> Customizer)
In the customizer you may load sample settings from the delivered WallhookV1.json file. This is a good starting point to begin to adapt your individual settings.

In the customizer you will find the following sections:

General -> Here you may set the accuracy of the output result. Higher accuracy results in longer calculation time
Base Plate -> Defines a optional base plate, its size, shape and position
Mounting Holes -> Defines optional mounting holes, its size, angle and position
Text -> Defines optional Text to be output as a 3D body
Text Options -> Defines the options for the text
Text Transform Options -> defines rotation and positins for the text
SVG plate relief -> Defines an optional 2D SVG Image into a 3D body
SVG Hook -> Defines an optional cloth hook out of two SVG files
Standard Hook -> Defines an optional simple cloth hook and its sizes
Hook transform options -> defines Positions, and rotation of the activated hook

Tips:

If you plan to make your own hook SVGs, make sure to have them all the same length (500) and look for having the foot curvature exactly in the middle (like with the examles) This allows you to use any combination of two SVGs without the need to scale them to fit. I used Inkscape (https://inkscape.org) to create the hook shapes.
Some SVGs are not suitable to be used with OpenScad. Since the Thing extrudes 2D SVGs into 3D, only black and white SVGs are sensful to be used.
Text, SVG and Base plates may be rounded on the top to make them looking more nice - depending on your wishes. I tried in a test to round the edges using the "minkowsky" function in OpenScad, but the calculation times rised close to "iternal", so I decided to go for a general top rounding. I have the impression even with the complexity of many SVGs or text fonts, the resulting calculation time becomes "annoying" and exceeds often minutes to hours. So I think OpenScad reaches its limits with complex designs, though I could not find a better alternative for parametric design to it.
