I needed something to stand my new mac mini behind my monitor and taking up as little space as possible on my desktop.

This design did the trick. There is a cable stay in the back that is meant to hang over the edge of the desk/table. If you don't have a wall back there (in case of tippage), I'd recommend some double-sided tape on the feet of the stand to prevent your precious from tipping over backwards.

I took inspiration from raster's original design, but added traps to lock the camera in place. Also added some lens protection, in case the thing falls over.

Also, check out my lens cap for this camera: thingiverse.com/thing:39880

I was excited for Michael521's spool holders, as I forgot to put in some t-slot nuts for an extruder... and didn't want to tear down the machine and recalibrate, just to add a top spool holder.

Unfortunately, when the extruder moved about, it would knock the holders around and out of their place.

I added these (also minimal) stabilizers to hold the suckers in place.

Keep that lens scratch-free and smudge-free when outside of the weatherproof case.

The name says it all: printable swivel hook

I'm actually surprised there wasn't a design for this here already.

Love Jinja's design, but the bottom wire traps didn't work for me. I added these stay holes on top to keep the plug inside the box when the lid is snapped on.

I just happened to have a battery powered candle stick (like these goo.gl/5gs33). So I modded the stand to work with it.

I chose to close the side holes to hide the candle

I started to design some slip-on "hands" to slide on the end of a set of disposable wooden chopsticks - to make it easier for chopstickers in training to get and hold on to food. Even when using Zydac's wonderfully springy trainer accessory @ thingiverse.com/thing:5923, its still hard for beginners to line up the tips for food grip.

But then I decided it was potentially wasteful to design a accessory for disposable chopsticks, even if the accessory itself was reusable. Solution: a full set of reusable, washable chopsticks!

They have a large grip area that should make for stable handling, as well as wide tips for solid food grabs.

droger's adaptation of andromeda's quadruped is awesome! I was planning on making my own design months ago. Life got in the way for a while, and BOOM, someone saved me a ton of time! A heartfelt thank you for that :)

Small problem though - the original design didn't fit the cheap 9G micro servos that I had on hand.

So I spent a *smaller amount of time* optimizing the design to fit the servos I (and a lot of other people might) have in stock.

I zipped up the OpenSCAD versions of the parts in case you need to tweak them to fit your servos or printer tolerances.

NOTE: what's shown in the picture are some mid-prototype parts. The finals are actually nicer with rounded corners and whatnot. Fancy!

UPDATE UPDATE: I cleaned up the OpenSCAD files in the zip package. I know some of you have servos with slightly different dimensions. The new scads should be parametric so that you can tweak a few dimensions to get parts that will fit your servos!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: the parametrics now support different servo horn dimensions!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: I've included a beta version of the design intended for those that have the Tower Pro version of the blue servo, based on communicated measurements. No guarantees: I do not have one of these servos to test the fit. I do have some on order, but it could be a couple weeks before they arrive. The beta STLs are available in the zipped archive named case_qp_tower_stls-beta.zip .

added little "mouse ears" to help with possible curling issues.

This is gbward's Nexus 7 Knucle Stand sized as a standard MM scale STL that works as expected out of the box.

TommyC's fine design, with a small change for accessibility. I reversed the trapped nuts one side (so that they are inside rather than out... as requested by RustyPaint. An excellent idea, I might add.

UPDATE: new part, there were some shape errors that are now fixed. Also added my modified SCAD libs that required tweaking to flip the holders.

The popular "micro" servo, simple module in OpenSCAD for use as a placeholder in your designs.

simple mount for brushless motor for use in multirotor aircraft.

a simple frame body for a small quadrotor, designed around ~1/2" square towel bar and the KK flight control board.

You should be able to print and fly in the same day!

SCAD included if you need to tweak to your dimensions. I'm using ~1.5cm square towel bar for arms on my quad.

My build is light, and cheap. I suppose I could be cohersed into including some more details about it if people are interested.

I included a pic of my entire quadrotor, just for giggles.

These struts are not indestructable, I know from experience. They break away easily, and take a brunt of the damage that would normally taken by your frame... no problem though - just print more.

SCAD included, as your inner dimension gap may be different than mine.

Another part that I wanted to have with trapped nuts, as opposed to having to drill and tap

I've been reworking most of the design to accomodate the linear slide rails that I got to replace the printed Z axis inner-slide method.

In having to virtually assemble the individual STLs for my new layout, I noticed the orignal Z motor brackets line up the motor 1mm out from the center of the threaded rod. I changed that - they should now be centered.

Also, the brackets allowed more play in the motor mounts than I'd like. I beefed them up a bit as well...

The original feet are most cute, but I wanted something that felt a bit more destructive!

an SCAD version of the inner slide. This will require a reworked X-motor and X-ider model that will be coming soon.

Somewhat parametric

I needed to tweak some of the parameters of the bearing holders, so I re-worked this idea as a derivative of joem's Y-axis holder derivative of GregFrost's Y-axis holder.

Third level of a Thingiception!

the supports were not printing on my setup (too small, so ignored by the slicer).

So here's a version you can tweak in OpenSCAD.

Decided to print these together, so I didn't have to worry about spacing, alignment and all that when I assembled the Y carriage.

I also shaved the tops of the bearing holders off, as I think they are unnecessary.

I didn't like the press-fit X rods (or drilled/tapped holes - not sure what was intended to secure them), so I added M3 trapped nuts to secure them. Also added another trap for second 8mm nut. Oh... and a couple spaces to reduce the amount of plastic.

[UPDATE] V2 has trapped nuts (M3 again) instead of drill dimples for the nut cap. I just tried drilling my first version and the lamination cracked (BOO wood screws!).

Perfect compliments to your Death Star's or Secret Base's wet bar.

I wasn't comfy with the drill/tap concept on printed parts for the original (and most *excellent*) Aluminum Mendel design. So I went ahead and started making some trapped nut versions of the affected parts. Hopefully, I'll find time to work out more trapped nut replacement derivatives soon... until then, here's the set of brackets that hold the Y axis smooth rods in place.

In response to Cadical's design challenge:

Sorry, couldn't help myself :)

I needed some brackets to hold a dial indicator in place for measuring the travel distance for all three axes on my Prusa. And I didn't want to have to remove the extruder or anything like that.

This simple set of parts should solve that problem for all of us.

This set *may* work on Mendel and other similar builds.
