Tomi<p>**<b>3D printed flower pot holder (hook) “Cranny”</b>**</p><p>Read it <a href="https://blog.rozman.info/3d-printed-flower-pot-holder/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">on my blog</a>, it has a nicer image/text layout.</p><p>I had some pots planted with strawberries and wanted them to hang them to the side of raised beds. I ran out of metallic hooks.</p><p>So I designed and 3d printed it.</p><p>The final result (flower/strawberry pots hanged at the side of the raised beds):</p><p>The first version (without the ‘crane’ structure) was too bendy to hold the pot in place.</p><p>Printed:</p><p>While printing (Prusa’s PETG, rough mode – 0.3mm layer height, speed: 100mm/s, fan: 50%, flow: 105%). The printer bed was just big enough (22x22cm):</p><p>TinkerCad design:</p><p>You can download .STL from <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/1247146-pot-holder-for-raised-beds-hook" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Printables</a>.</p><p><strong>Printing issues</strong></p><p>First 2 tries were a mess. My printer just didn’t want to print PETG properly anymore. It made zits, skipped lines, … ugly in one word.</p><p>Then I replaced the nozzle (after 2 years!), re-calibrated the bed, Z-height, tightened the screws and it made all the difference. I can push the speed of my poor Sovol SV06 up to 100mms again. Only the outer layer I print with 30 mm/s.</p><p>You can see how worn was the nozzle (it supposed to be pointy, not flat):</p><p>The next issue was warping. The left edge of the magnetic metallic print bed raised a bit when PETG was cooling down. So I made this to keep it in place:</p><p>Tags: #3dprinting #garden #flower #pot</p><p><a href="https://blog.rozman.info/3d-printed-flower-pot-holder/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blog.rozman.info/3d-printed-flower-pot-holder/</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://blog.rozman.info/tag/3dprin/" target="_blank">#3dprin</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://blog.rozman.info/tag/3dprinting/" target="_blank">#3dprinting</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://blog.rozman.info/tag/flower/" target="_blank">#flower</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://blog.rozman.info/tag/garden/" target="_blank">#garden</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://blog.rozman.info/tag/pot/" target="_blank">#pot</a></p>
