3D model description

Very small but usefull Filament Clip

Uses just around 0.22-0.24 gram of material!

It's pretty simmilar to my old 'Small Filament Clip' but now should work better and will print much faster

Model is for 1,75mm filaments
If you want to use it with 3mm filament try resizing the model to 170-172%
May be better to use bigger nozzle too (like 0.6mm or even 0.8)


3D printing settings

Use only 1 wall, no infill, no top or bottom layers
Can be printed in Vase Mode
Print it slower to have better cooling
You may resize it in Z-axis to whatever you want. The smaller it will be the weaker it will hold the filament and a bigger model means stronger clip

Depending on the filament, printer and slicer options it may hold the filament with stronger or weaker force too
If it's too weak try adding more flow or print the model little smaller

Print with z-seam in 'sharp corner' (Cura) or 'alligned' (PS)
MiniFilaClip will have the seam in the middle, on the tip of the 'hole' there
MiniFilaClip_solid will have somewhere on side
Both models are working pretty the same

Prepared for 0.4mm nozzle
Printed with PLA, PET-G and ABS - It doesn't change much but ABS worked the best (it's more dense), then PET then PLA

Also I made a test with 2 walls with model printed with 103% size
Try it if you will have some problems with printing with just a 1 wall (like when you don't have a good cooling and/or print it faster)
You may also resize it in Z-axis to 50% - may be easier to use
