Summary

My wife was looking for a temporary clothes line, so decided to design and print one!

This clothes line has a ratchet crank to easily pack it up when not in use. Included some hooks to add several lines between our shed posts. Holds up to 38' of surveying line.

This is my first attempt at a ratchet mechanism, and it wears out very fast.
Based on using this, it makes more sense to print two of the end loops, and forgo the ratchet alltogether... oh well!

What you'll need:

  • No.8 wood screw (for attaching hooks and bracket)
  • surveying string
  • file (if parts are not fitting just right)
