Process & Procedure

To do this, I will need to render two pieces (the left and right portions of the hanger) that overlap at the handle (hook). I want it to “snap” into place, so it is important that I make the handle overlap seamlessly. I will need to include a mechanism that allows one side of the hanger to have an extruding notch that can fit into a hole in the other. I have chosen to 3D print this because of the extrusion, which is something a laser cutter cannot provide. The focus of this project is “something that moves,” so although it will not be to size, 3d-printing is the best way to prototype the moving mechanism in this case.
