I made a set of hive hooks for a friend of mine. They are used when doing a hive inspection. They hang off the front of the hive and act as hangers for up to 2 frames so you don't have to set them on the ground.
If you end up printing and using these, please post a photo of your make.
Late update: A helpful user pointed out that the picture didn't match the STL file. It turns out I had uploaded the wrong STL of an older iteration. The Fusion360 files were correct, just not the STL. The only difference was an extra cross member, I've now uploaded the correct STL file (V4). I left the older STL file (V2) just for posterity.
Added a hanger to fit 40mm wide hive edge.
Even later update: I missed a fillet on the last version (V4) V5 has now been uploaded that fixes that. In practice it's not a huge deal, but the current version is as it should be.
