3/4" Rod Holder by Cotton80

I used these 3D prints to hang a low cost 5.1 home speaker system in a rental home. The speakers have a key hole for installation. I also included a simple open-faced wire management 3D print. The 2-part hanger can reasonably fit from 1/2" to 3/4" rod. You will need one 1/4" set screw and a 6-32 set screw to install your rod into the parts. I used self tapping #6 screws to mount into the ceiling. you can use drywall screws for the wire hangers. The rod I used for my project is 1/2" inner diameter CPVC pipe. I used the heat from the stovetop to give the pipe the desired bend that I wanted. You could use a heat gun to do the same. I lightly sanded all parts with 120 grit sandpaper and spray painted flat black to match the speakers.
Other Uses: You can use these parts to make clothes hangers in a closet by making two 90 degree bends on the ends. You can do the same and install a board on top to make a light weight shelf. You can use the keyhole hangers to hang pictures in the open instead of directly on a wall.
