A 3D-Printed Ceiling Mount for Sewing Projectors
In addition to 3D printing, sewing is one of my hobbies. Tracing sewing patterns is a necessary but often time-consuming step in many projects. To simplify this process, a projector that projects patterns directly on the fabric on the sewing table is possible. There are many dedicated projectors on the market, but they come at […]
A Dutch-Design Inspired Book Stand
For my latest side project, I decided to design a book stand that is not only functional but also references my Dutch roots. Inspired by the architecture of grachthuisjes (canal houses), I created a stand that holds one open book while allowing multiple books to be stored on the sides. On the sides, it has […]
Travel card boxes (with design tutorial)
When traveling by plane or train (or by any means), every little bit of space can be precious. I like to take some card games with me, but this summer I noticed that the boxes of those card games were a lot bigger than necessary. Additionally, some were in a bad state from previous trips. […]
Jungle-Themed kids clock
Recently, I needed a new clock for the house and decided to challenge myself to create it with my 3d printer. I do not have multi-color printing capabilities on my 3d printer, hence I needed to get creative to make it work. Printing the dial and numbers separately and with tight offsets allowed for a […]
Webcam at eye height
This project is a corona baby for me. During the lockdown when I was suddenly working full-time in home office, I got tired of wearing a headset all day. Therefore, I purchased an all-in-one conference device (webcam, microphone, and speaker). This worked well, but the device, placed on the desk, was very low and gave […]
Jewelry holder
I don’t wear much jewelry, mainly just earrings and from time to time a ring. However, I removed them before going to sleep and used to toss them in a box lying around. This led to tangles (with the one necklace in there) and a messy experience. After searching high and low for a 3D-printed […]
The art of calibration
I’ve been printing for a few years now and have gone through the (I guess usual) phases of this hobby: initial motivation, disillusion, steep learning and relatively good results, upgrade the 3d printer, understanding slicers actually make a difference, different materials, etc… Currently, I’ve gotten more and more practice and am not as easily happy […]
My first useful object
I started 3D printing a few years ago after receiving an Ender 3 for my birthday. Like most people who started 3D printing at that time, I tried using it, quickly got discouraged, and set it aside for 6 months or so. I guess with the new generation of 3D printers, the adoption might be […]
