I was thinking that maybe I should try my luck on the Printables contest for bookmarks. I haven’t joined any of their contests before, so this was an easy one to begin with. This was my second submission to the contest. You can find the files for this model here: https://www.printables.com/model/347051-the-book-magnetic-pencil-holder-bookmark
Combined bookmark and page holder
I was thinking that maybe I should try my luck on the Printables contest for bookmarks. I haven’t joined any of their contests before, so this was an easy one to begin with. I sat down, got an idea, and couple of hours later this was born. Somehow I just feel so happy how it…
Customizable Mood-O-Meter for the office
It was again time for the yearly Christmas presents for my colleagues. Everyone will have custom “moods”, with the exception of “No Issues” which is not selectable. Selecting “No Issues” will always flip it to another mood as not having any issues is impossible!
Magnetic and stackable dig markers for metaldetecting
I’m often detecting with my kid, and he usually marks the spots which he can’t dig himself. I also use markers for the “maybe” spots where the signal is questionable but I might want to check later. Now the ground is frozen, so I decided to make a bit nicer markers for the spring which…
Metalworker’s Pacifier
I was too cheap to buy a new chip collector, and I didn’t like the fact that I would need to use two hands to release the chips. As I had some leftover neodymium magnets from an old project, I decided that I’ll spend my Saturday night to design one that would fit my needs….
Camera for Hama Bead “pictures”
My kid started making Hama bead “pictures”, so I made him a camera! Design time was around 3 hours, and so was print @0.15mm. A very simple print but also very liked. What can I say? I love to make useless stuff, hahah. You can fin the files for this model here: https://www.printables.com/model/315888-perler-hama-bead-camera
Restoration of an ancient metal brake
I got an old metal brake from the family of an old machinist who had passed away. It stood in my workshop for almost an year, but I finally restored it and added a new handle to it to make it functional again. The brake was painted with machine enamel paint, so it should last…
Magnetic blowtorch holder
I’m continuing my mission of making my little workspace as user friendly as possible. The goal is to have all the most used tools easily accessible from my usual working position. This time I re-used my WD-40 holder design and made a blowtorch holder. 3d printed and with three magnets to keep the can in…
Magnetic Roloc holder
With a small workshop, little improvements are very noticeable. With these it’s much easier to switch disks and everything is within my arms reach. I designed two versions; one for 2” discs and another longer one for 3” discs.
