First Layer Squish Tool
I always prefer things to be more definitive than subjective. To that end, setting the Z-offset and getting the first layer squish just right has always seemed a little frustrating. That is until I designed this First Layer Squish Tool. Print it and you can see what is the smallest slot you can achieve with…

T8 Fixture Mount
I had a T8 LED “shop lamp” fixture lying around and at the same time I can never get enough light, so I thought I should whip up a mount for the fixture. This one works excellently. This is for the T8 fixtures that are often referred to as shop lamps. Those ones are mounted…

Folding Garden Canopy
Living where we do, I have difficulty keeping some of my herbs (plants) alive through the winters. But I have found protecting them from the winter elements using a cover is extremely effective in getting them into the spring in good shape. So I created a folding canopy structure using 1/2 PVC pipe and a…

Giant Spider
We are doing a kind of “spider” based Halloween theme decoration this year and so I was looking for large spiders to print to put on the front lawn. I found a few decent ones but none that were huge or had articulated legs. Maybe they are out there but I didn’t find them. So……

Lazy Susan
2023-02-25 Update: I have created version 2.0 of these which use conical bearings and consequently runs much smoother and more freely. Although they are in different sizes I recommend these newer versions as opposed to the older ones described here. The new versions are linked here. Lazy Susan Mechanism 2.0 (Conical Bearings) Original Posting: I…

Freezer Crates
I know it may not be a concern for everyone but if you need to organize a freezer it can be difficult to find containers that are suitable. Firstly, they need to be the right size. And secondly, they need to let air flow in and around them. I hunted high and low and then…

Reboot!!
I placed this post in here as a time marker… A few months ago my service provider had a hardware failure and well… my backups were not so much.

20xxx Series Cases
Similar to my 1060 series cases, these cases are modular and many of the parts are interchangeable. All components are printed (no screws, pins or other hardware needed). The parts snap together and make a fairly durable case of random things.

Step Fountain for Bob
I saw something like this in a dog video some time ago and thought what a great project to try to remake for 3D printing. It was a little ambitious for me but in the end, it works super well. One of my dogs (Bob) just loves it. Albeit I can’t turn my back on…

1060 Series Cases
I wanted to design a small case to store clean disposable face masks and ended up making a series of cases. The smallest one is fun for your pocket or on a key chain. The middle size is suitable for holding credit card-sized items. The cases print really well and snap together easily. All the…

Universal Phone Holder / Body Camera Mount
This phone holder has a sliding/locking top that can adjust to many phone sizes. I started this as a holder to allow me to use an old iPhone as a body camera. In other words to hold the phone horizontally, forward-facing and clip-on. In the end, it is not excellent for that purpose but it…

Giant Crib Board
This crib board is about double the size of a conventional crib board and designed for ease of use having larger pegs and tapered peg holes. I thought it would be nice to have a bigger board with bigger pegs to play on when space permits.

Sight Glass Marker
If you have a sight glass on a hot liquor tank or other tank and want to be able to set level markers this is the part for you. I made one that you can slide up and down or reposition to set a starting or ending level, as well as a graduated marker that…

Dog Ball Holder
Designed to help me hold on to my dog’s ball when out for a walk. I imagine it would work well with tennis balls as well but I have not tried it.

Modular Remote Control Holders
These holders slide together into endless configurations for all your various remote controls. They can also be used for other similar-sized objects like eyeglasses for example.

Broom Handle
Replacement for the Swiffer Vacuum sweeper handle. The original handle seemed very weak and snapped after some use. This one provides better leverage and reduces the risk of breaking.

Bread Slicing
This is a knife guide for cutting bread. It folds neatly for storage. The base extends out to support the portion of the loaf that is not in the cutting zone. An end wall flips up to position the loaf for cutting. No hardware or fasteners are required. It simply snaps together and works!

Quick Release Fan Duct For JG Aurora A5S)
This is one of those projects that I spent a ridiculous amount of time on and in the end really never finished it. The idea is fantastic though… snap on and off fan ducts for the hotted on a JG Aurora A3S or A5S. Not only does it make replacement quick and easy, but the…

Tweezer Tower
The lipstick holder I made a few weeks back was such a big hit with my wife she asked for a tweezer holder. She has more small tweezers, scissors and other instruments than seem reasonable and the holder is needed.
-
Lipstick Tray
My wife had a tray full of lipsticks and asked me if I could help organize it for her. I never miss an opportunity to print something for her as it seems to make the fact that I have a printer running nearly 24/7 more acceptable to her when I make things for her.

Split Ring for Keys
I designed this just for fun but they work quite well also. I was interested in seeing how to print two components together without them bonding. I used a 0.2mm print layer and a 0.2mm gap between the two rings. They stick together but don’t fuse together and can be pried apart quite easily. Nozzle…

A3S Cable Chains
I designed this from the ground up as a learning exercise as much as anything else. And, honestly just because it seemed like a fun project. I had no cable chain experience before making this so I am not sure exactly how the chain is supposed to behave but I think this one works pretty…

Ethernet Cable Strain Relief
This clamping strain relief holds ethernet cables in position behind a rack, NVR, hub or modem. It can sometimes be important to put the cables back to the same positions when reconnecting and this clamping strain relief helps to achieve that. It holds each cable in position while at the same time providing strain relief…
