A big hook for hanging up an IKEA shark to keep him off the ground.

There are 2 versions - one with a hole at the top of the anchor, and one with the hole filled - the filled version is for hanging with command strips, which work well with one on top and one on the bottom.

This was designed in Fusion 360, and the original CAD is in the downloads for easy modification. If you do use that, note that I originally modeled this way too small to hang up an IKEA shark, so the STLs here are scaled to 150%. You can apply a scale modifier in your print settings, or as the last step in the Fusion360 file (Modify>Scale) before exporting.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Prusa

Printer:

I3 MK3S

Rafts:

No

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

.05-.2mm


Notes:

Only needs supports for the upper 2 barbs. I used "generate supports from bed only" and adjusted the angle threshold until it left most of the hook unsupported except the barb.

Printing in the orientation pictured, the angle of the shaft is really shallow and will show FDM stepping artifacts. Using variable layer heights there and at the top of the 2 upper hooks hid this very well in this case, while keeping the overall print short and maintaining a good looking finish.
