Summary

parametric / universal customizable clip for cylindrical / round objects.
It also seems to do pretty good with "round" objects, like a square-ish mason jar.

also known as a U clip, rod clip, cylinder clip, bar clip, circular clip, pipe clip, etc

Was created for a 40oz hydro flask water bottle. Values for this application:
r = 45.466
t = 6
opening = 110
h = 30

printed in PLA with 30% tetrahedral infill at lowest resolution / highest speed
Gyroid infill also works well.

Do not use concentric infill, it will be very weak.

The clip's strength can be adjusted a few ways:
Wall thickness
Clip height
Infill %
Opening amount
