This print has been tested for several months under load (around 10 lbs) in my own home. Made for hanging items using a 3/16" toggle bolt in regions of your wall that do not have a stud. Toggle bolts can hold far more weight than typical drywall anchors. Additionally, in homes (like mine) that have ¼" drywall, typical drywall anchors will not work. This hook can hold plenty of weight, currently it is holding our bathroom mirror (about 10 lbs). The photos posted are after some use, hence the small amount of wear on the hook from the mirror. This wear has yet to affect performance after multiple months however. I printed my unit in PETG-HF, but there should not be any issues printing in PLA. Just ensure to not change the orientation of the part, as it is intended to place stress on the strongest part of the layer bond. The top hole is where the toggle bolt goes. You can simply put any screw into the bottom hole as it is only to ensure that the hook stays in the proper orientation without
