And I bought them at the very same store. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] billbasher@lemmy.world [S] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) Ya they made them plastic bag width but also the length of the plate. You’re either hanging off the edge or squished. So mildly annoying permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FigMcLargeHuge@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago (2 children) Yup.

Right on some prints were the first thing I posted so I was curious. I think I’m gonna go for something a bit wider than a hook. Maybe a bar around 12/14 cm so it doesn’t sway permalink fedilink source parent [–] billbasher@lemmy.world [S] 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Here’s what I was thinking permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FigMcLargeHuge@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago That looks good too.

My bags did not come with any sort of fastening device, and besides, that's why I own a 3d printer. To solve problems like this.
