A project I’ve been working on for quite a while, I used it to learn how to tig weld. 7 different 3D printer parts go into it, plus electronics of course.

Not as nice as the tools that some of you are posting, but i thought I’d share this jig I designed to drill a hand rail for stairs I make. Variable angle to match wound (don’t know if it’s the correct English word) stair steps .

I needed to replace the Shimano motor and didn’t want to buy a tool just for this time. So I designed this and printed it instead. It’s 6 perimeters, printed with a P1S in the second strongest PC-CF we have tested (3dxtech.

Quite happy with how much force it withstand being just 6 perimeters. I also used it to remove the lockring first, and that required even more force.

I made this guide to assist in drilling the holes for a new door. All measurements are within the recommended size hole and spacing of handles.

I was happy with the results.

It will still need a bit of clean up with a chisel where the flat metal plate screws into the door, but not much. It was harder than expected to use the router and actually see what I was cutting.

In the Onshape image the red circle is to see though and find the mark you make to measure how high you want the handle to be. (36-48 inches that text is on the side of the device) The purple circle is for the top slot to set the depth of your router if you want to carve it out like that vs with a chisel. the depth is the depth of the metal plate you screw in off set by the depth of the guide.

Let me know if you need anything changed and I can make some adjustments.

Thank you!

I like to find ways to reuse my ever-growing pile of used pill bottles. The Walgreens medium sized bottles are marked MP20 and are perfect for storing small screws, heat set inserts and a single 18gram dose of coffee beans. The stand will hold seven bottles.

My motorcycle oil funnel project is coming along nicely, and now cover most makes and models.
These funnels screw into the oil port and stay in place, which is super handy for a lot of bikes.

With community contributions, the original 5 funnels have expanded to 14, plus 5 bike specific funnels, matching most makes and models, with a detailed fitment guide.

Happy oil change MC riders!

I got tired of looking for the brushes I use to clean my water bottles.

Sure, I could buy the broken part at ~20€ but even with Prusament PETG it calls ~1.2€
and all the fun to do the CAD stuff was for free. Printed on a core one with print in place dove tails. Will publish the FreeCAD file on printables this evening. The original molded part was much thinner I guess the 3D printed replacement will last longer.

Fabric leaf vacuum bag dissolved after ten years; repurposed an old gamma seal lid (which had a hole in it already) by printing an insert with gyroid infill to act as filter and attaching a hose to said filter. Now I just hook this up to my leaf-vac throw the bucket over my shoulder. I can unscrew the lid to open it quite easily.

Do you also have a food saver laying around?

This part is for you.
