20° Angled Kitchen Towel Holder V2 (using 3M Command Strips) with STEP file

This is a pretty simple towel holder which was the result of a few suggestions on a prior version I remixed from MSCreations towel holder here (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3601219). This version is not a remix, but definitely has some inspiration from that model.

Features:

• The towel holder is angled 20° to the right which is meant to keep the towel a bit tighter together since in my kitchen there are too many places it can get caught in.
• Towel "hold-back" is optional but intended to keep the towel away from drawers (or in my case a dishwasher and oven).
• Both parts mount using 3M command strips (model Large / 17023P-ES) - they need to be trimmed down just a bit.
• The included towel holder faces right so if you need it to face left, please mirror it in the slicer.

• The towel "hold back" is meant to go on the left side so if you want to use it on the right, please mirror it.

  If you have little ones, I do not recommend using these since they could get their fingers pinched or stuck. In any case, this is a make / use it at your own risk thing.

  Areas for improvement (I don't plan any updates at this time however, but feel free to remix it):

• The hold-back part is not perfect and could probably be a bit longer but I did not want it sticking out more than it was and I consider it to be optional. If you like it, please click the heart, and if you make one, please post a make. The STEP file is included for easy remixing.

Notes:

I used PETG since it will be cleaned with chemical cleaners.

When printing, I suggest rotating the hold-back part 15° so the slanted side (top) can sit on the bed. That will allow printing without supports and has the added benefit of making it a bit stronger. The towel holder itself can be printed upright without supports.
