Shock Cord Holder (stay put style)

Shock Cord Holder (stay put style)

Description

I needed a way to hold shock-cord and I thought a grommet-style thing would work so I sketched these and printed them and they work perfectly. Most of the force should be held by the screw - so the plastic should not have to hold much. I realized after printing these you can buy something similar from marine supply - they are called stay-put fasteners. There are two versions - a split version that has a very tight, snap-fit together and a full version that will likely require overhangs. The top has a chamfer for a #6 screw - print that with the chamfer down both for the surface finish and so it prints the overhang on the chamfer. I printed with 30% infill and 4 perimeters and I think they're strong enough for what I need.
