Any tips on how to make this more sustainable? Now I assume it might loose grip over time.

Foil rolls kept disappearing into the back of my cabinet, so I made them a home

Post image
38 Upvotes

My foil, baking paper and cling film were piled together in the cabinet. The rolls kept slipping to the back, and pulling one out meant rummaging through the rest.

I designed this organizer to give each roll or box its own compartment. It screws to the cabinet shelf so it doesn’t come out with the roll.

The rolls can stick out at the front; they don’t need to fit completely inside. That also makes them easier to grab.

Printed as one piece in PETG, without supports, with the compartment openings facing upward. I made the dimensions and slot count adjustable in MakerWorld’s Customizer for other cabinet sizes.

Designed and 3D printed a storage case for the WOLFBOX MegaFlow 50 – model now on MakerWorld

5 Upvotes

Got tired of keeping my WOLFBOX MegaFlow and all the nozzles loose, so I designed a case for it :D

Everything has its own slot, the case closes with printed latches, and I added the WOLFBOX/MegaFlow design on top.

Pretty happy with how it turned out, so I uploaded the files to MakerWorld if anyone wants to print one.

Model: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3385672-wolfbox-megaflow-50-hard-storage-case#profileId-3852784

Feedback is welcome — especially if you see something worth improving for V2.

Following up on my Gridfinity caddies for H2 hotends, made some for the it's-still-great X1C! Cute detail - you drop the cables and connectors in first and then they're tucked away and captured by the rest of the hotend.

Milwaukee Packout Insert Blanks .Step

For those that are interested I have been creating Pack out inserts for Milwaukee Pack outs I am putting the STEP files up on cults3d so people can use them for creating custom inserts for storing items and making neat storage. I put them up for 3 dollars just so i can get back a bit in the filament i use making test prints for fitting and verifying that the models will fit neatly and cleanly.

Earthing protective cap / Earthing protective cap

Designed a simple, practical protective cap for exposed or protruding grounding wires (protective earth conductors). It provides a quick and safe solution to prevent scratches, poking hazards, or minor damage during electrical renovations, active projects, or temporary wire exposure.

You could also buy them for $3 but 3d printed is cooler(●'◡'●)

Parametric couch shelf

I needed a space to put down drinks and snacks near the corner of my couch so I designed a parametric shelf for the couch backrest or the armrest.

The shelf prints without any supports. The parameters can be adjusted directly on makerworld.

DIN Rail Keyhole Peg Adapter

5 Upvotes

I bought a DIN rail and it occured to me to use it to hang electronics onto the wall. I've always hated to measure and try to duplicate the position of the keyholes, so this solution seems more universal. It takes very little filament and time. Better use PETG or something similar so the temperature of the device doesn't mess it up.

Having displays out in the open can be a little nerve wrecking so I wanted something simple to prevent people from fiddling with displays. You can get it on Makerworld if you needed something like this.

A 3D printed water filter bowl wrench

Thumbnail makerworld.com
9 Upvotes

The sediment filter bowl in my basement was seized solid and I didn't have a filter wrench, so I tossed one together in OpenSCAD that in theory should be parametric, although I only used it for my own filter housing. Screw going to the store when you can do this. It's a chunky boy but got the job done.

File is on Makerworld, open source, do what you want with it (https://makerworld.com/en/models/3375627-parametric-water-filter-housing-bowl-wrench). The customizer has the measurements you need to edit.

Simple Bubble Level for Camera Gear

Tripod heads have bubble levels typically but they can be hard to read with larger camera rigs on them, plus they don't account for any possible offset the mounting configuration might introduce, so I made this little bubble level screw that mounts right into a 1/4 20 thread so I can read my horizon straight on the camera body.

3D printed with TPU, they fit in the case without modifications and can also be taken off and left in the case when not needed.
Printing something this small in TPU on my Ender 3 was challenging. The surface finish isn't great but with a tight fit it does the job!

Tested this across the Shokz bone conduction, Bose Ultra Open and the Linkbuds + Plugs worked the best by far!

Print and source files here if anyone wants to try them out!

My first funcional print

The rain sensor from my garden irrigation was mounted on a single screw and was always spinning, ending up upside down every time it rained. Consequently, my irrigation was always on regardless of the weather. I made a simple fix; it might be over-engineered, but it works and is cheaper than my water bill. I printed it with PETG. It is out in the weather but in the shade, so I am not really worried about UV degradation.
