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 turned out. I’ve done some very complex and time consuming models before, but I think this must have been the most satisfying one.

It ended up winning the second prize out of 550+ submissions.

The final result.

The model.
The other side of the model.

Stackable magnetic soldering clamp

I got tired of my metal soldering clamps destroying the small wires I use on my projects, so I decided to model a simple magnetic version that fits my needs better. These are stackable for holding multiple wires simultaneously, and incorporate a print-in-place hinge to make the assembly simpler. I…

3D printed Die Tower with a trapdoor

I don’t play board games but I like to challenge myself with creating interesting 3d models. A die tower was a perfect thing to make as it would have moving parts, interchangeable design, and limited hardware. The model does not require any supports, and only needs a spring from a…
