Lock some calipers (with a rod sticking out) to 1.5mm shorter than the part height, compress it down onto a kitchen scale until the rod is just touching the platform, and record the weight.
That’s just the first procedure that came to mind. I will try to think of a way to do a hook strength test today.

I just tested this hook by hanging a 5 gallon bucket and gradually adding water. 1 wall = 1710 g, 2 wall = 1178 g. The thing is, a 1.5 mm PLA hook fails by unrolling rather than snapping, so rigidity is more important than strength.

Nice! Thanks for the work and reply 😊
