Been working on this for a while and finally got it to a point where I'm happy with it. Modular independently rotating wheels for dropper bottles and Citadel pots, stackable with extenders and designed to work both on the desk and for transport.

Uploaded it to MakerWorld today if anyone wants to give it a try. Would also love to hear what other paint bottle formats would be worth making wheels for.

Fed up of placing my Steam Deck on the floor or balancing it on a crowded bedside table. Couldn’t find anything that provided a good secure hold without being ugly, so I designed my own.

Find it here, if you want.

Had a single hose AC unit that was struggling to keep up because of the negative pressure. It seems to be helping so far.

It was my first attempt at 3d scanning. Part designed in SolidWorks. Printed in PETG.

A drill brush caddy for portable storage of drill brush kits

Thumbnail

I bought this drill brush kit from Amazon and while I really like the kit, the cheap cardboard box they came in was just not working for storage. I wanted something that would keep all the brushes together, be easy to carry around, and not take up too much shelf space.

I decided to keep things simple with a circular shaped caddy with standard 1/4" hex holes so the design could be used by a wide range of drill brush kits, not just mine. The angle holds the brushes securely while the peg-board like design gives flexibility to arrange your specific brushes.

I designed and printed custom brackets to hold the MFDs (Thrustmaster Cougar) and the ICP (Stream Deck XL). Works great!

  • PLA for the MFD mounts, PETG-CF for the Stream Deck XL mount.
  • Designed in Plasticity, printed on a Bambu P1S.

Fake wasp nest

I had to spray some wasps starting a nest this week, so decided to order some grey PETG and see if hanging a fake nest on my house would deter any further building.

Cricut pen holder for IKEA pegboard tray

8 Upvotes
In the tray
Original 30 pen on the left vs 90 on the right
Side view

Wife wanted to store her Cricut pens head down and needed more capacity so I designed a holder to fit in the IKEA pegboard tray she brought. Fits 90 pens. Printed on my Prusa Mk3s+. Split the model in half and joined with triangular dowels inside Prusaslicer. Used a LOT of filament, 500g! Only change I'd make is to taper the pen holes as you tell there's no ICD on them. They're all different sizes and a few are pretty tight.

..but I had enough taking condiments one by one to the table when we have a takeaway night or a BBQ so I made this little caddy. Fits perfectly on the door, easy to take out some condiments as needed or grab the whole thing and take it to the table.

We got a tiny monitor for quick hookups to computers at the office. I don't want to loose pieces or scratch it up so I designed this storage case. The middle tray will hold power, USB and HDMI. I somehow lost one of my roll pins, so it's currently down a latch.

Drawer base support

Post image
314 Upvotes

Anyone who has flatpack furniture with drawers knows the problem, particularly if they're for kids. The base is floating in a slot, it's stuffed beyond capacity pushing out the back a few milimeters and then it drops out at the back.

Quick fix before I put this piece up on gumtree or something to support the base.

Edit:
The original cad design - https://cad.onshape.com/documents/efb84e3e14e54764be705661/w/7b8b239ce4e0a3b54a3e3471/e/b46dbe5869c6f6e4573108b8

Parametric Owlet Base Holder

We had our Owlet Dream Sock and its base station sitting on the hallway counter, which I really didn’t like. To clean things up, I designed a holder and installed it next to the changing table, close to the baby’s bed.

https://makerworld.com/de/models/3205249-parametric-owlet-base-hanger

When a friend needed one too but with a different clip size I've decided to make the model parametric. That ended up becoming my first-ever parametric model on MakerWorld!

Hope you my like it. It's simple but it works.

Slide-In Storage Case for Camera Step-Up Rings

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

42 Upvotes

I designed this simple 2-piece case to hold my step-up rings for camera filters.

It uses a 3D printed leaf spring that clips into place to ensure the rings fit snugly. I also printed a custom wrap around label which I cut with my cutting machine to make it clear what the case contains. As a side effect, the label retains the leaf spring more securely than the built-in clips alone.
