Multipurpose Hook – Customizable 3D Printable Hook

This is a 3D printable multipurpose hook designed for practical, everyday organization around the home, office, garage, or workshop. It works well for hanging bags, headphones, tools, towels, cables, and other frequently used items.

The design focuses on clean geometry and reliable strength, making it easy to print on most FDM printers with standard slicer settings. Depending on the hook style and orientation, supports are usually not required.

The saddle portion of this design is 1.18in inside measurements to fit over a standard deck board that my fence is made from. You can adjust the size, length, etc by using the customization tools.

Want to make your own version? You can fully customize the hook’s size, thickness, curvature, mounting style, and more using the Multipurpose Hook Builder at STL Playground:
