Summary

A simple clothespin hook that makes use of an existing clothespin (or, just the spring if you want to print both sides) to hang various objects off other things.

I've been using some that didn't put the load in the middle of the hanger, or the hook wasn't long enough, so the whole object would fall off whatever rack it was attached to. I got frustrated and made my own.

The inner diameter of the hook loop is 28mm, so it should fit on most towel racks and shower curtain rods; the back of the hook is ~7.5mm, which is enough to secure it but not so much it can't be taken off a rod easily.

2019-01-27 - I've added a second set of hooks, which still work with normal clothespin springs, but are a little better - with an upwards hook on the inner 'grabby' hole (which helps greatly with heavier cloth, without tearing into it), and a smoother neck in the hook. The dimensions are still the same, but I've found it to be more effective.

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I'm glad to see this is so useful. :)
