Designed a simple paddle hanger for the garage wall. The file is attached below, free for personal use.

The part: a 100x70mm mounting plate with screw holes, two 50mm arms with angled retaining lips. Holds any standard paddle shaft. Print it flat on the bed, the 45-degree lips mean no supports needed.

Print settings that worked for me:
– PETG recommended (PLA is fine for indoors)
– 0.2mm layer height, 4 walls, 40% infill
– No supports

Mounting: #8 wood screws with washers through the 6mm holes. Run a drill bit through first if you want round holes instead of square.

If you print one, post a photo. Curious how it comes out on other machines.

Printing this tonight in PETG. My paddles have been leaning in the corner of the garage for a year, about time they got a proper home. Will report back.
