Climbing hangblock

A finger-training block that hangs body weight off 10 to 25 mm edges, with a grip texture and the climber’s name.

Blue 3D-printed climbing hangblock with labelled 10, 15, 20 and 25 mm edges
The job
A climber wanted a portable hangblock: four edge depths in one block, light enough to carry, strong enough to hang from.
What I did
Started from a hangblock model shared online. Added a fuzzy-skin texture on the grip surfaces with a slicer modifier, so the edges hold chalk and skin better, and embossed the climber’s name. Printed in PETG, which flexes before it cracks.
How it turned out
Delivered and in use at the gym.
