My original model was OK, but I felt it needed better direction. This one is a noticeable improvement over the previous one in terms of bridging and fine detail.

Yesterday, my fan duct broke off during a print and spent some time in the company of the hot end before I could recover it.

I then had to attach it with tape.

I thought I'd better model a new one before this fell off again and was no longer usable.

I'm afraid my model may not be as accurate as I would like in the melted area as I never studied it prior to the hug with the head, so I don't know what it should look like.

Test to see if I can make my old OpenSCAD script run in Customizer

Just a quick mash-up in OpenSCAD of Paul Murrin's excellent star to enable me to join the pieces together without glue and insert LEDs into the points

I printed this with %0 fill, 3 shells at 0.2mm layer height, 120mm/s travel on a Replicator2 in natural PLA. Each point takes about an hour.

I haven't seen any snowflake designs on Thingiverse, so I thought I'd upload one.

I saw the original and thought what a great idea. I just needed to make a hole in the middle and a mechanism for opening it.

A quick tutorial in Alibre Design / Cubify Invent. to make a tree hook.

We ran out of hooks, I couldn't find any wire. So. 10 minutes later 8 tree decoration hooks.

My son was reading an excellent article by Amanda Darby on the 3D Printing Industry website and wanted one of these, but with 8 points.

For some *real* model making,

Anyway, I though someone else might want one to stick on their bedroom door.

An art deco style lamp shade.

Direct replacement for LMB6UU (3/8") Linear bearing as used in Thing-o-Matic mods.

Combination of Tardis with doors and stacker drawers

Rudimentary case for $49 APC (Android PC board from Via) apc.io/

A Tardis with movable doors.

Yes, I know only one is supposed to move, but the intention is to have them opening outward and then put some of my stacking drawers in it.

I printed this 50% scale to test it worked and it looked so nice that I thought I'd upload it for all.

I did search for Tardis, but I found so many results that this may be a duplicate of someone else's effort, sorry, let me know and I'll include a link here.

I also thought about making Tardis Matryoshka dolls, but each inner model would have to be bigger than its container - needs more thought...

A drum shaped drumstick holder

Component boxes that stack and slot into rails that also stack all printable in 100x100x100

Some little boxes for trinkets

A strong little bracket

Interestingly shaped pots.

I've recently found some filament suppliers providing a small spool with their 1 Kg filament (approx. 90 mm x 160 mm diameter with a 35/30 mm hole).

I assume these come from Europe or China, anyway, they don't fit on the standard spool holder, so here is an additional one.

Drop in replacement for my MK6+ 3mm extruder using 608 bearing instead of Delrin plunger.
