3D model description

Very simple but smart little paper clips with the MakerBot logo designed in. Unlike metal paper clips these, when printed near to solid, they are springy so flex to accommodate from 1 to 15 sheets of standard copy paper.

Why "1" sheet... because they work with a single sheet you can use them as a Mini Bookmark as well as a paper clip.

Just another 3D printed alternative for an everyday item.

As this is a fairly fine print I recommend printing at least 2-up so the print gets a chance to rest/solidify between layers. This may be beneficial on some printers.

Note: If you like this check out all my other designs!

3D printing settings

On a Replicator 2 these print really well 2-up with Raft, 0.20mm (Std. resolution, 3 shells and 75% infill... this makes them almost solid so they are springy and reasonably durable.
