This gear-themed business card holder is one of the first designs and is a great way to customize your desk at work or home.

**Printing Tips**
No supports necessary for this print!  I printed using PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3 and added my name on the front plate.  The print file is blank but most slicers can add text overlays, and I recommend "engraving" the text with a depth at least equal to your nozzle diameter.

After it's printed, you can also paint in the text and then sand down the surface to remove any excess paint for a clean finish.

Geared Business Card Holder

Business Card Holder.stl

Handy little clip that fits on standard pegboards and is great for securing work gloves or any other items that fit.

**Printing Tips**
At under an hour print time, it won't take long to begin organizing!  I printed using PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3.  Supports will be necessary since you'll want to print so the layers run perpendicular to the direction of movement when the clip flexes.  That will maximize the strength and lifetime of the print.

Pegboard Glove Clip

Glove Clip v1.1.stl

It's a knight stand, get it?  The Knight Stand is a miniature, fully-functional, medieval-themed night stand.  Although it's not actually a full scale night stand, it is large enough to hold smaller items, such as collectibles.

**Printing Tips**
I recommend using multiple colors, similar to what is shown in the example photos.  The frame does take a long time to print, so make sure to have good bed adhesion to avoid warping or print failures.

To assemble the components, simply snap the ball joints on the doors into the appropriate locations on the frame and slide the drawer into the top section of the frame.

Leaf Cookie Cutter V1

Pokémon fans unite with this playful Oddish bobble!  Enjoy watching Oddish bounce to and fro with the addition of 3D Printy's bobble-head springs.

**Printing Tips**
I printed using PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3 with variable layer height to help with the curvature on the bottom of Oddish's body.  The bottom layers start at 0.1mm and it changes to 0.2mm just before the leaves on top of Oddish's head.  I recommend using some glue on the print bed if you are having issues printing at 0.1mm layer height.

To properly orient the legs for printing, I recommend rotating them about 35 degrees so the bottoms of the feet are parallel to the print bed.  For supports, I omitted them from the leg and spring holes on Oddish's body and the leaves, since those can be bridged, but you do you.  I definitely recommend using supports for the bottom of the body and feet to help that curvature print clean.

To assemble, just use a little super glue to attach the spring and legs to Oddish's body and then watch it bounce!

String art rendition of a mini display shelf, perfect for displaying your 3D prints!  

**Printing Tips**
Don't use supports!  The strings are designed to be printed with a 0.4mm diameter nozzle and 0.3mm layer height, so changing their size may affect the print.

Here are some other recommended settings to use if you re-slice:
- Wipe while retracting - Enabled
- Detect bridging perimeters - Enabled
- Seam position - Nearest
- Bridge speed - < 5mm/s

Build and customize your own gingerbread man bobble with this set of prints, just in time for the holiday season!  This gingerbread man is designed to work with [3D Printy's](https://www.printables.com/model/224836-emoji-printer-bobbleheads/files) bobble-head springs and comes with a set of prints for custom decorations, including the following:
- Gumdrop eyes (or buttons)
- Frosting smile / frown mouth
- Frosting “neutral” mouth
- Dapper jacket (my personal favorite)
- Rolled-up shorts
- Patterned shirt
- Suspender pants and shirt

Click [here](https://www.tiktok.com/@gcv3d/video/7171587649197641003) for a video of the final result in action!

**Printing Tips**
I printed using PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3 with a bunch of different colors at 0.15mm layer height with a 0.4mm nozzle.  I recommend slowing down print speed to help everything come out clean since some of the parts are quite small.  Also, be careful when removing support material as some parts can be delicate.

To assemble, just use a little super glue to attach the eyes, mouth, and clothing.  The spring can be press-inserted and if it doesn't fit initially I recommend just filing or sanding down the spring peg a little bit until it snaps into place.

My take on a deconstructed Christmas tree that uses a lot of bridging!  

**Printing Tips**
If you use supports, make sure they don't interfere with the bridges!  The strings are designed to be printed with a 0.4mm diameter nozzle and 0.3mm layer height, so changing their size may affect the print.  If you're interested in a scaled up version, just let me know and I'd be happy to put one together!

Here are some other recommended settings to use if you re-slice:
- Wipe while retracting - Enabled
- Detect bridging perimeters - Enabled
- Seam position - Nearest
- Bridge speed - < 5mm/s

Also, I recommend using a higher nozzle temperature for the tree trunk to help the hoops droop some more.  I just manually changed the temperature to 230C at the start of the print and turned it back down to 210 - 215C when I changed colors.

Low poly rendition of the Piranha Plant from Mario!

**Printing Tips**
I printed using MH Build silk rainbow PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3S.  If you're re-slicing, make sure to add supports as needed.  I selected supports “Everywhere” but then used support enforcers to disable supports in some areas that don't really need them, such as the underside of the planter and inside the mouth.

Replacement battery cover for Xbox Series X/S controllers.  It may also fit Xbox One controllers but has not been tested.  I printed using PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3 and couldn't be happier with the results!

After testing the first version, which is as close to an exact replica to the original part as possible, I found that the printed part lacked the textured feel of the original.  So, I made a second version with some texture on the top surface to help slide the cover on and off.  I also use a rechargeable battery docking station, so, of course, I made a third version with a cutout for charging the batteries.

I couldn't stop there, so I also made a selection of custom logo versions with options like Avengers, Overwatch, Witcher, and more!  If you're interested in any other custom logos, just give me a shout!

**Printing Tips**
The model comes with a “wall” surrounding the part to help with stability as it prints, so make sure that the print is oriented with the open ends of the rectangular "wall" pointing vertically.

I also highly recommend the following slicer settings to help with a clean print and ease of support removal:

- 0.2mm layer height
- Outer and inner brim - you decide the width but I used 4mm and it worked well
- Support material: everywhere, grid style, XY separation of 100% (i.e. same as nozzle diameter), increase pattern spacing (4mm spacing worked well for me)

**Printing Tips**
No supports necessary since you're printing in vase mode!  I printed using silk rainbow PLA on the Prusa i3 MK3.

Honeycomb Vase (vase mode)

The inspiration for this design came from the depiction of dragon eggs in shows like Game of Thrones.  I thought the scaled texture would be an interesting challenge to model and I think the final results turned out looking great, especially with the silky rainbow PLA I used to print.

**Printing Tips**
No supports necessary!  It scales easily and I printed mine at 150% since the original model ended up being a little small for my liking.

Low Poly Pumpkins

Low Poly Pumpkin_v3.stl

A trio of cute floating ghosties return from beyond the grave to add some playful spookiness to your Halloween decor.

**Printing & Assembly Tips**
Don't use supports!  The strings are designed to be printed with a 0.4mm diameter nozzle and 0.3mm layer height.  Re-sizing will affect the print, so just be careful and make sure each string is a single strand. 

Here are some other recommended settings to use if you re-slice:

Wipe while retracting - Enabled
Detect bridging perimeters - Enabled
Slow down print speed for bridges a bit

To assemble, just stack the three prints, applying some glue to each joining peg to hold it all together.  They are designed to press-fit, so I didn't end up using any glue and they hold together pretty well.

Ghosties in the Graveyard

Ghosties in the Graveyard_Front_v2.stl

Think Universal's Jurassic Park River Adventure™ or Disney's Splash Mountain.  This model of a flume boat is perfect for anyone interested in theme park ride models.  It does take some time to print so I recommend running it overnight.  The supports inside the model to support the railings should be removed gently so that the model itself doesn't break.

There may be a larger model of the ride itself coming in the future, once I have more time.  Hopefully with a working water component.

Theme Park Flume Boat

Christmas tree and ornament cookie cutters that are perfect for making holiday cookies.  Recommend printing with the top of the cutter laying flat on the print bed.  Note that the minimum print width is about 1.4mm so increasing nozzle diameter will reduce the number of shells/perimeters.
