Title says it all. I designed this to mount the air assist under the table that houses my laser engraver enclosure. You can mount it up right or upside down. You will need two-sided tape, a 4.8x15mm M5 bolt and four screws - self-tapping countersunk screws work best. Thread the bolt through the base until it is flush and a few mm of thread are sticking out, then apply the two-sided tape to the underside. Remove the backing from the tape and place where you want the pump to be mounted. Press firmly and hold for several then insert screws into the 4 mounting holes. Put the shock absorbers on the rubber feet and then place the air pump over the center bolt and turn to tighten. It will become tighter as you turn it until it is seated very firmly. You can move it back and forth to adjust to your liking. Best mounted on a heavy, stable surface - otherwise you'll have a lot of vibrations.

This is a repost - some people encountered problems with downloading the STL files and I couldn't determine the cause of the problem, so I am re-uploading everything. 

I designed this as a companion piece to the Dual Fan Smoke Extractor I made, which can be found on here. It is made to be used with alligator clips, but you can modify it to your liking, of course. You can use with one link and end link or as many as you like. I heated the base of the alligator clips and forced them into the end link pieces and they are plenty snug. Very helpful for holding wire stationary when you are soldering. The bottom insert has three sections for inserting small neodymium magnets with cyanoacrylate, if you need to attach the base firmly to a metal tabletop, etc. Very handy little creature. The top insert is removable to so you can get rid of those little solder blobs and flux splatters. The base and top are printed in PLA at 25% triangular infill, the three insert pieces and printed in TPU 95A.

This is a repost - some people encountered a problem downloading some of the STL files and I couldn't determine the cause, so I am re-uploading everything.

This is a pivoting dual fan soldering smoke extractor I designed to be used on a tabletop, or it can be placed on a shelf overhead with the fans pivoted down, for soldering taller / larger objects. I used standard grey and black PLA, dried to 10% moisture and printed at 50% triangular infill.

I used the following items from Amazon Italy. If you're in a different country, Amazon will most likely have the same items or something very similar.

I designed this to tidy up my workspace and maximize the utility of my printer table, as I had too many small tools scattered about. The two pieces are bonded together with cyanoacrylate - "super glue", I use medium viscosity - and the base it attached with two sided tape. Simple, easy upgrade. May fit other Creality printers with the same 24V power supply.

I love Halloween and I love pumpkins, but it seems like everyone in the 3D printing community is making pumpkins so I decided to defy conventional wisdom and make something a little more... modular. I designed these little light towers so you can illuminate them with a regular tealight (small round candle), a LED tealight or a solar lawn light. These are intended to be made with transparent filament, but you are welcome to remix them however you like to create anew design. 

The idea is simple: if you have solar lights like the ones shown in the photos, turn them upside down and put them in the base of the light tower as seen in the photos. You can print a color insert with transparent filament - I use TPU - and make it glow any color you like. 

NOTE - There are two basic designs, closed and open top. The Open Top models are for use with a regular wax candle. DO NOT USE THE CLOSED TOP MODELS WITH A NORMAL  WAX CANDLE, THEY WILL MELT AND POTENTIALLY CATCH FIRE! ONLY USE THE OPEN TOP MODELS WITH A WAX CANDLE. 

The color inserts are ONLY FOR USE WITH A LED LIGHT, NOT A WAX CANDLE!

 You can customize these any way you like - there is a blank model so you can add your own design. Print face down and use different infill patterns for a unique pattern for the eyes, etc. Keep the infill for a groovy design that would make @davemakesstuff_ giggle or remove them for a different look. You can paint them any color you like. The potential for creativity is endless. 

Included are two Halloween standees. Print the front with transparent filament and print the back with the color of your choosing. Put a light or candle behind it and add a little spookiness to someone's day. I used a glue stick to assemble the standees. As long as they don't get wet they should be ok. 

I use two-sided tape under the bottoms to anchor them in place so the wind etc. won't blow them over, they are very light.

A simple sugar stencil for making designs with powdered sugar or cocoa. I made the first one to dress the top of a tort for my wife's birthday. Modify and remix to your liking. To use, sift powdered sugar or cocoa directly over the stencil, while holding it directly over the item you want to dress up, holding it against the surface or very close to it with light pressure. Make someone's day with a kind message or give your desserts some dazzle. With a little practice you can make some amazing plates or desserts.

Self defense keys and keychain, made for my wife after a co-worker was harassed and assaulted downtown. Meant for self-defense only. Don't be a victim! Use common sense, do not take where such items are prohibited. By downloading this you accept any liability and responsibility. Non-lethal but will definitely deter an attacker. Blank insert F3D file included for customization.  For best results print at 25 - 50% infill, preferably triangular for better strength and rigidity. Insert pieces are press-fit, so be sure your filament is properly dried and use the correct temperature for your type of filament. Works best with PLA, PLA+, CF PLA or ABS. Inserts can be pretty much any type of filament you like. Reuse any old keychain ring, as long as it's not too small.

Remix of Simple Heart Box with Lid by 3dprintbunny

Please like and download. Inspired by my lovely wife and Mercury the messenger of mythology, I present to you The Glowing Heart Messenger Box with customizable messages. It’s a jewelry box, or a box for candies, or a projector to cast messages of love, admiration and geekiness. You could call it the “marriage proposal” box, or the “just because I love you” box. The download includes a STL file for a blank insert so you can change the message. When printed with alternating colors of transparent and opaque filament, it creates a nice lighting effect that can be used in various ways. Use the flashlight on your cell phone or any small bright light to illuminate this box and surprise your loved one with a nice message. Maybe you want to pop the question on Valentine’s Day and haven’t decided how to do it yet…

  This makes an excellent Valentine’s Day gift. The potential for color combinations is endless. As long as you use a combination of opaque and transparent filaments, the glowing effect will look great. *It is important to use transparent filament for the inner heart piece, so the light will travel out to the other transparent pieces.* This print is not difficult at all as long as your filament is properly dried. I used gloss red silk PLA and pink eSun TPU 95A. Printed at 20% rectangular infill – it creates a nice pattern with transparent filament that adds to the appearance. All pieces are printed flat with no supports.

I made this top rail mount for an eSun filament dryer box, to be used with a direct drive system on an Ender 3 Max. Printed at 25% triangular infill with normal PLA, it is more than strong enough to support the dryer box and a full 1kg roll of filament. NOTE - it is a press-fit, meaning it is a very snug fit. Because different brands of filament have higher/lower expansion properties, I highly recommend that your filament is dried down to around 10%, and it is best to print the small test piece to see how it fits. If it is too tight to slide firmly onto the rail, increase the inner and outer dimensions equally by a half mm until it is a snug fit that can be slid along the rail with some force. I added a LED mount to the underside. The small alignment washers go on the top under the bolts, to keep it square.

I wanted to design this remix so multiple colors can be used. One model has a hollow area for the heart, you can leave it empty or print the heart-shaped insert. The insert is a press-fit so it will click into place - just make sure your filament is properly dried first. You can also print the entire thing in one color if you like, a combined STL file is included. The lock bodies print better upside down, the heart looks better that way and the keyhole area looks much better. I added a removable base to the shackle to make it easier to print with better surface appearance. Remove the base once it has printed and insert into the lock body. I use medium viscosity cyanoacrylate for bonding, just a few drops in each top hole then insert the shackle firmly and it fits perfectly. Inspired by my lovely wife.

I can't imagine anyone who deserves love more right now than the people of Ukraine, so I made this in the colors of the Ukraine flag, with the Ukrainian trident and traditional garland from older Ukrainian flags & emblems. I scaled the STL to 200% then split the original remix into two halves so two colors of filament can be used. Last I added a base to the shackle to make it easier to print. After printing the shackle, I used a razor knife to separate the shackle from the base then bonded everything together with a minute amount of medium viscosity cyanoacrylate. This is my first remix, and I must admit it was a bit addictive... Many thanks to @davemakesstuff - what a pioneer!
