The Parts Nebula

don't be crabby!

Sometimes things get complicated. Even something simple can contain dozens of parts that can be troublesome to keep track of. That's why we've created a parts lister system here on Thingiverse to try and simplify all that! Read more about this new feature on our blog.

So, what can you do? Here's what we have so far:

  • Create embeddable part lists for your things.
  • Files in a thing can be parts.
  • Things can be parts too!
  • Parts can have multiple suppliers.
  • Keep track of what parts you have w/ export.
  • Find out what you need and where to get it.
  • More features to come as we add them!
