Conduit Clips for Cords, etc.
I created a 3/4” EMT Conduit clip and added it to Thingiverse:

I got tired of cutting and re-fastening zip ties and figured that there had to be an easier, reusable way to hang lights or other relatively lightweight items from conduit. I needed the clip to be strong enough for cords but removable and adjustable.
This clip is a remix of another, only mine “snaps” over the conduit and loops over it for more support. Crucially, it slips through the small loops of the popular hanging string lights as well as a perfect fit over the cord.
I printed these with the lowest quality settings on my 3D printer. Draft mode is fast and essentially good enough for this simple profile.

They are plenty springy now, but I really don’t know if they will hold up over time. Crossing fingers.
In my slicer, I also have solid, concentric infill. The perimeter lines follow the curvature of the semicircles all the way into the middle, if that makes sense. I was thinking this would be stronger since it would be pulling along the filament lines instead of pulling apart at parallels.
