Functional 3D Printing

Update 2023-11-27: This thing is Version 1 of my adaper. I have now designed Version 2, with the following improvements: the smartphone's center of gravity is now directly above the mounting screw, which gives the tripod a more secure stand, The tripod adapter is now even more compact and lighter. You can download this new...

This is a fully re-modeled build of a MicroSD case inspired by Kozalakis's one, borrowing some ideas from Kroki's remix of it. I didn't actually use any of their source, rather building from scratch using SD/MicroSD card dimensions. This version relies on fairly close tolerances, so it may be a bit temperamental on some 3D...

This is a strong corner for fixing three planes. Print as in the screenshot. Added a new v2.1 version! The area of contact with the planes has been increased by adding small overhangs that do not affect the print quality. Added a new v2 version! Removed overhangs for simpler print quality. Increased base area for better...

Similar tools are sold online, pretending to help creating friendship bracelets. I was curious, so I created one for my daughter. Even not really needed it helps to keep the right order of the strings, which helps the younger ones... You should still attach the initial end of the strings somewhere so you can give some tension on...

CyberLevel. It’s a digital spirit level for camera operators with a circular touchscreen, some Lemo connectors on the other side and a 1/4-20 thread of the back (aluminum gear set insert, much lighter) . Printed on my 6 years old HyperCube Evolution in CF PETG.

It helps categorise, manage, and present content effectively, commonly found in applications. About 130mm in width x 30mm in height. An add-on is an optional component, feature, or extension that can be integrated into an existing system. More designs on Printables: https://www.printables.com/@ChrisTech Change Log: 7 November...

File here. This is almost definitely not the best one that anyone’s designed, but at least it’s a little unique!...

We put this together for my public library’s makerspace. I have a bunch of issues with the design, but it does work so what can I say really. Specifically it’s this one....

Redesign of a simple micro SD card organizer, based on the original MicroSD Card holder by FritoBandito. Created a new model in Autodesk Fusion 360. Redesigned the slots for easier card removal. Print with 0.2mm layer height

This is a wall mount I designed and made for the Meta Quest 3 VR Headset; I also made a wall mounts for the Quest 1 and 2 when they were released, (see other designs) and was hoping to have this wall mount compatible with the Quest 1 and 2, but the design of the Quest 3 prohibits that. I have added three new STL files to make...

This is an automatically latching lock which is powered by a Micro Servo SG90 9G. This makes it easy and inexpensive to interface to most microcontrollers such as Arduino. It is designed to engage with a pin of 3mm to 4mm diameter (not part of this model). When the pin enters the slot, it causes the mechanism to latch. To unlock...

I was just playing around with printable trapezoidal threads and before I realized it, I had designed a large machine vise… The vise has a clamping range of 120x120mm. It is good for circuit boards because plastic is non-conductive. Standard trapezoidal threads (30° thread angle ) or ACME threads (29° thread angle) are very...

Guide for lubricating motorcycle chains. Clips onto grease bomb Maximum chain width: 26mm Guide pour graisser les chaines de motos. Se clipse sur les bombes de graisse aerosol Largeur maximum de la chaine : 26mm Je peux faire d'autres versions plus larges ou plus étroites si besoin.

A simple spring loaded third hand for soldering wires

Hook to hang stuff from on the garage shelves from Bunnings or where ever These have lasted me over a year. Printed versions in PLA or PETG on X1C & Ender3 both are fine for hanging tools. Working on shelves with holes of about 12mm upper hole, 7mm lower hole and 1mm metal thickness.

Some holders or adapters I made moons ago.

This was remixed from UncleFrankSays version to hold a different brand of electrical tape which had a different inner diameter. If you read his comments on the serration, it's really only cosmetic as it doesn't function very well because electrical tape doesn't tear well. What is nice about this, however, is that it gives you a...

This is a variation of my 3 PIN LED Strip thing 6123191. This is for 12v 10mm LED strip lights. The height is 4mm so it doesn't add height to the height of my pictured IP65 strip. Yes, it's not soldered but you can see the wires fit. 9/20/2023 Update: Added info that this is a Remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5223739

If you unzip the fabric lining of your suitcase, there should be some screws that attach the handle to the outside. This will commandeer one of those screws to hide the AirTag beneath the fabric lining (but close to the exterior shell of your luggage). Mine is a Samsonite, but I’m sure it works for others as well!...

SkyWatcher Star Adventurer is my grab and go kit for astronomy and I take it with me abroad too. I dont want to carry around steel counterweight when Im abroad, especially air travel with them can be costly. So I came up with this solution that holds two 0.5l cans to use as counterweight. On the V2 Ive also included screws and...

Various knobs for cylinder head screws with M3/M4/M6 or M8 thread. For explanation, I have designed two different versions. The standard version has a hexagon socket integrated in the knob. The screw is inserted or glued onto this, whereby the thread length of the screw remains the same. The "thread" - version is for high stress...
