Parametric Change Caddy

Designed a customizable USD change holder for my car. You can choose its size, how many of which coin slots there are, how they are labeled, etc. Simple concept, I just wanted to be able to tweak it into exactly what I wanted.

You can use Thingiverse Customizer (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6064869) or OpenSCAD to modify the parameters. With a little bit of OpenSCAD know-how and effort, you can also add non-US coin types. If you do, feel free to release remixes or alternative versions.

Fidget Hinge

This is a little fidget toy I made for myself to keep my hands busy when my mind is occupied. It is just what it looks like, a simple print-in-place hinge. I ended up with one of these when I was messing around with designing a hinge, and I ended up liking it so much I decided to share it.

If you'd like it modified (bigger, longer, shorter, etc) you can use the Thingiverse Customizer (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6060319) or the OpenSCAD file to tweak some parameters.

Note: For my printer printing at 0.3mm, the tolerance is just right where the hinge sticks a bit at first but loosens up nicely after a while. If the hinge prints loose or fused into 1, use the Customizer to change the "air gap" between the parts.

Parametric Magnetic Folding Parts Tray

If you are like me, when taking apart something you will often start to misplace small screws and such. But you also don't have a lot of space so having a full-size parts tray has always seemed like a bit of a waste. And also you wish it could be magnetic. I think that its just the 2 of us now, and have I got the printable for you!

This parts tray is parametric, meaning you can modify many things about it in the customizer or OpenSCAD. Change the width/height/depth, containers, beveling, magnet size, disabling magnets, tapered edges in the compartments, tolerances for the hinge, and more. If this seems like the kind of thing you might enjoy, hopefully I gave you enough settings to customize it to fit your need.

Note: With the magnets I used (6mmx3mm), it is strong enough to gently hold some screws right in the middle, but it wouldn't hang onto them if I bashed it to the ground.

Parametric Battery Box

I wanted to be able to attach a box of batteries to the back of my utility closet door, so I made a solution to this non-problem!

The box stores batteries at a 45 degree angle, so it can be used standing or laying down. It has many customization options. Choose what kinds of batteries, how many per row, how many rows, where the mounting brackets are, the padding between cells, etc. Handles AAA, AA, C, D, and 9V using the Customizer. I did NOT include support for flat cell batteries. As you may see I just jammed them in a 9v slot.

If you know a little OpenSCAD, you can easily add your own battery types with some light variable tweaks! Add storage compartments of any size using this method!

Fair warning, this is NOT efficient to print. My demo took 22 hours to print at 0.2 SPEED setting in Prusa slicer (all defaults). I'm sure with some setting fiddling you could knock it down, especially if you switch out a larger nozzle. Be careful lowering the infill too much though, those mounting tabs rely on it too! You don't want to go hang it up and have them go crunch. I used washers to help with that.
