Gone are the days of travelling all the way to IKEA to get your Billy bookcase, just to have to source metal rods online after to make a filament rack. Just pick all the bits up in one place.

While I have printed mine in PLA, PETG is always recommended for load bearing prints.

The H2O DJ allows you to attach a common PET bottle of any size to your garden hose and adds small amounts of it's content to the bypassing water stream. The amount that is added can be linearly adjusted by turning the valve-cap and ranges from closed (nothing is added, pure water bypasses) to about 0.5 litres per minute of additive mixed into the water.

Applications:

• Turn every water sprayer or power washer into a foam lance to clean your car or terrace. Just fill liquid soap or detergent into the bottle (maybe slightly diluted with water, should it be very viscous) and when you are done: just close the valve-cap to rinse it down with fresh water.
• If your dog allows it, put some dog shampoo into the bottle and give it's paws a quick rinse after a muddy walk. (please be careful with the water temperature of sun-exposed hoses!)
• Fertilize big areas of your garden or potted outdoor plants in one go! A 1:10 ratio of fertilizer to water (e.g.) attached in a 1 litre bottle will give you several minutes to spread the fertilizer evenly.
• You can use it in a similar way to spread all kinds of beneficial bacteria or cultures in a larger area around your garden. This technique of “inoculation” can help your garden in many ways. There is an interesting symbiosis between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and legumes that can be kickstarted, mycorrhiza spores (fungi) can be spread to help the roots absorb nutrients and effective microorganisms (EM) can be brought out easily.

Printed my own "rock ring" style fingerboards. I designed them so that the midpoint of the depth of each pocket/ledge (25, 20, and 15mm) is directly beneath the anchoring part of the rope. I figured this should virtually eliminate moments and help keep all ledges parallel to the ground even under load.

The PLA is a little slippery, but the fuzzy skin slicer setting (I used 0.5 thickness, 2 density) makes the friction much better, and with chalk, the grip to the PLA increases dramatically, as you'd expect.

Hopefully, utilizing these in my programming makes me climb harder! 💪🪨

Recently discovered r/Multiboard and the Multibin system and found myself in need of button cell battery holders, designed some out in Fusion360 and printed them in PETG HF on my X1C. Once you start designing inserts it's hard to stop, so I designed inserts for C and D cells while I was at it!

All are at https://makerworld.com/en/collections/6553522-battery-storage-for-multibin for anyone else who needs to sort their batteries.

We have corrugated metal siding and I wanted to put a Ubiquiti AI Turret camera up. Normally, you'd have to cut a big square in the sheet metal and anchor a box or something to the underlying wall, which was more building modification than I wanted.

But I am a nerd with tools!

Printed in Polymaker Polylite ASA on a Bambu X1C since it will get direct sunlight. I spent a bit of time playing with ironing and am pretty happy with the way it came out. The surface finish is basically smooth (the bumps I think are iPhone image artifacts), and the flat side just has the plate texture on it plus some support gremlins.

Here's the printables link: https://www.printables.com/model/1300784-ubiquiti-compatible-corrugated-metal-siding-mount

Or the kids and I have an Etsy store and we'll print one and send it to you: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4306595600/corrugated-metal-siding-mount-compatible

My first print in place design, it's not perfect & needs supports to print but I'm happy with it.

I designed this poop bag holder to fix some common issues I had with store-bought ones: weak threading, loose caps, and bags unraveling on their own.

This one’s:

• Triple-threaded for a secure, tight closure
• Retractable, using a 695ZZ bearing for smooth rotation
• Makes a satisfying click every time you pull a bag
• Knurled grip for handling even in wet or gloved conditions
• Prints easily with minimal support and friction fits right off the bed

It’s built for durability and fits standard poop bag rolls like:

• uxcell 695ZZ Bearings (5x13x4mm): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JZ8W3RP
• Earth Rated Dog Poop Bags: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XVFSZTF

If you’re into functional prints or walking your dog with gear that won’t fail, I’d love feedback. I’ll upload the STL to MakerWorld shortly—happy to DM the link or update this post once it’s live.

Let me know what you think or if there’s anything you’d tweak!

Custom OpenSprinkler enclosure for a Power Supply, Pi Zero 2W, and an 8-Zone Relay Board along with associated wiring and fuse. This is running off of a 24 VAC power supply.

This was a fun project to DIY a more cost effective solution than the ready-made package.

I created a Thin Rope Hook System Singular and Double to use with light to medium weight material to use as decoration:

The link to the rope hooks:

https://makerworld.com/en/models/1442423-rope-hook-system-for-coloring-panels-diy-party#profileId-1501531

For example:

- Paper

- Cardboard

- PLA Decoration

Attach the Rope Hook with super glue/tape/nano tape to the object and you can easy hang it up on a sling/rope/thing string

Easy to hang/ easy to remove.

My use case are my coloring panels which you can find a link to here:

Remixed a popular flexible print pattern and integrated into a flat print t connect that I can zip tie together. Just needs to be strong enough to hold planting rods to attach strings and string up vining plants in the garden. (Tomato’s/cucumbers)

I’m not an engineer by any means but got into the hobby out of curiosity. I feel like these machines are functional and necessary to have for any shop situation and I also saw the potential for home organization and repairs.

Bought an XC1 after seeing one used in a workflow at another persons shop and was sold. I’ve gotten used to it and started learning free cad as I am moving away quickly from just using other peoples models.

Recently had some really satisfying repairs around the house that stretched my baby engineer brain and free car skills.

1: pedal broke on our trash can and I could not figure out how it was supposed to work. I finally found someone on reddit who posted their broken pedal and I realized there was a part (axel) missing. Designed and printed an entirely new pedal, axel and washers.

2: string trimmer broke and I could not find drawings or replacement parts for this model anywhere. It took some creative measuring techniques to get the dimensions and I just kind of guessed at how the thing worked and what the missing part was. Used a small springboard lying around. And it worked! $0.01 print saved a $60 trimmer. Very satisfying.

Both prints made the wife super happy.

Mic was too thick for the original set up. I was able to squeeze it into the internal sleeve but that eliminated the clearance required with the outer ring. So instead of playing the back-and-forth return game with Amazon, I just designed a new one.

Quick Release Gate Open Prevention Lock - 1.3" Stroke Great for quick access from your backyard or side in completely fenced in properties. Eliminated the need for keys or having to go to the front of your house to unlock a gate. Specifically designed so neighborhood children can't easily access the pool. I wanted a quick way to “prevent” people from accessing backyard but didn't want to deal with keys and locks.

Ever tried cutting PTFE tubing with an exposed blade and thought, “There’s got to be a safer way to do this”?

That’s exactly why I made The Bowden Puck — a compact, enclosed cutter designed to keep your fingers away from the blade while still delivering clean, precise cuts for 4mm PTFE tubing.

So I updated my earlier design — now introducing:

The Bowden Puck, Magnetized.

It uses small 6×2mm magnets to hold everything together, so blade changes are simple and safe. No screws, no tools, just a solid click.

Features:

• Fully enclosed blade – Fingers stay safe.
• Tool-free assembly – Clicks together magnetically.
• Fits standard DE razor blades – Cheap, easy to replace.
• Custom knurled grip – Feels secure, even with gloves.
• Designed for 4mm PTFE – Specifically tuned for 4mm tubing.

Blade replacement is as simple as pulling the top off (magnetically held), dropping in a new DE blade, and clicking it back together.

Why magnets?

The original version used a snap-fit annular joint. It worked, but wasn’t ideal for anyone needing to swap blades frequently. Magnets solved that without compromising on feel or safety.
