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
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.

Microgolf
What do you do you when your kid has to stay at home due to the flu and you need to work? You quickly design something that he watch being printed and then play with it! On today’s menu was Marble Minigolf. You can find the files for this model here: https://www.printables.com/model/288280-desktop-marble-minigolf
Riot Mamas – logo
My brother and his wife has a band called “Riot Mamas”. Me and my family were going to visit them and I decided to make a little gift to take with: a giant fridge magnet! A simple two colour design with embedded magnets.
3D printed padlock
This was created for my kids to play with, but in reality it was more of a design challenge than anything else. The lock is “fully functional” in the sense that it can only be opened with the key that belongs to it. The only hardware you need is a spring from a pen, all…
Stand for an extra ball for a CST trackball
I have an extra ball for my CST trackball on my desk, and I decided to design a nice 3D printed stand for it. It uses a standard skateboard bearing and you can make the ball spin for a very long time (and by that annoy your colleagues endlessly). You can find the files for…
WD40 can holder
Yesterday I had the final straw when I was going to clean my welding table and the damn WD-40 can was nowhere to be found again. I went back to the house and after an hour this contraption had been designed. It took 13 hours to print and now hopefully I remember to put the…
