A two-piece straight sock blocker.
This is a straight sock blocker for displaying socks for photography to best show the stitches or colorwork. It has been made modular to allow for greater length for longer socks.
Uses M5 6mm chicago screws (M5 4mm or 5mm could also work). You could also just glue the halves together if you don's care how compact they are.
Make sure you have good bed adhesion on your machine. First pair I printed did not and a corner got a little rough which caught the socks- need them nice and smooth so will want to smooth any rough spots after printing.
ADDING: Added 100mm wide sock blockers. Original is 80mm wide. Added a photo of the blockers in black, showing the narrower and wider ones side by side on the same sock (which required a bit extra stretching).
