I needed some clothes hangers so I designed these neat foldable ones which fit on a 22x22cm Ender 3 build place.

No supports are needed for this print.

I recommend printing it in PLA with 4 walls and 5 top and bottom layers at 0.2mm layer height for strength and stiffness. Infill doesn't matter that much, since it's almost solid anyway if you print with plenty of walls

The horizontal clearances in the print in place mechanism are 0.25mm. If your printer isn't particularly accurate, you may need to adjust the horizontal offset in your slicer to ensure the walls don't melt together. The vertical clearances are 0.5mm, which should be plenty so long as your printer can bridge OK.

There are 2 versions here. Version 3 uses slightly more material, folds a bit better and has slightly tighter Z tolerances. Version 2 is the older design, but I'm leaving it here for records sake, in case anyone wants it.

If you've liked this model, feel free to tip me a buck or 2
