I have a 3d printer and use it – on the whole – for boring and pragmatic things. This page contains a collection of objects I have designed that I use around my own home.
Miscellaneous Mundane Prints
Some things I design are so one-off or specific to my particular needs that I don’t publish the designs. Here are a few examples of these mundane but useful prints:
Dollhouse Replacement Peg
A replacement peg for my daughter's dollhouse after the original broke. Custom-fitted to match the exact dimensions of the original piece.
Custom Floor Drain Cover
Our house has an extremely gross floor drain that is uncovered in the basement, this print (concrete anchored to the floor) ensures that no objects -- or toddlers -- fall in.
Gym Equipment Wall Plate
Our basement has OSB walls over concrete, not up to code but what we're working with. To mount a squat rack to the wall I had to cut holes in the OSB, these plates hide that.
Vinegar Shaker Stopper
I love malt vinegar on my food, unfortunately fruit flies also love malt vinegar and kept getting into the vinegar shaker. No more!
Cup Holder
My friend Susie bought nice outdoor furniture with large cupholders in the chair arms. The cupholders were, unfortunately, slightly larger than her favorite water bottle. This print shrinks the diameter of the cupholder so that it is a perfect match for her water bottle.
Modem Cover
We keep our modem in the guest bedroom and in the dark, its power LED is surprisingly bright. This plastic shell sits over the modem and ensures our guests can sleep..
