About the sheet music clip

Music books never want to stay open on a stand. This clip spans the spine and holds both pages flat. The designer copied the idea from a commercial clip and printed it using a slicer trick from a Prusa blog post about modifier meshes.

The trick is to print it with no top or bottom layers and 60% triangle infill, so the infill pattern itself becomes the springy surface. The designer admits it's a little wobbly, but it holds very well. Both a normal version and a ready-made 3MF with the special settings are included.
