3D model description

I recently designed this item to make a small table display to show examples of my wife's great card making skills at craft shows. I was not able to find a suitable clip on line and it ended up being faster to design and print them myself. Being able to create them myself gives me full control of the implementation.

Its roughly 6 Inches wide and captures the edge of paper or card stock. Stock wider than the clip may also be captured if needed. Spring and pivot pin as well as final assembly pics are shown in this project. I mounted these to some white oak boards but they could be mounted to any other flat surface including sheet stock such as aluminum or thick vinyl.

I went through a couple iterations of the mounting bracket to permit capturing of the spring as shown.

3D printing settings

Print time ~1Hr 19 minutes for clip and 12 minutes for two mounting brackets. Include 1mm supports in both clip and bracket clips.

PLA, I used Overture Pro Filament: extruder set to 225C, room temperature bed (25C), 60mm/s, cooling fan on. Infill pattern, rectilinear at 90%.
