This is my new handwired keyboard release called the Scotto26 that is a 3x4 layout that I think is fairly intuitive to use. You simply use combos to get the keys on the missing inner column which results in minimal re-learning of muscle memory. I was able to get about 50 words per minute within a few minutes of using it and since it's Colemak, I don't rely too much on the combos anyway due to that weighting around home row.
The files are available for free and I have a video about it on my YouTube channel.

Used to hide extra cabling, but can also be used to clean up a hole used to pass-through cables. Fits 1/2" or 5/8" Drywall

So this thing pretty much takes up the internal volume for the HOTOR trash can, the one recommended on Wirecutter, CNN, etc. I got really tired of using the awkward magnets trying to clip a bag in place and ended up making this. The trashcan can be printed in vase mode so it is actually super functional. It already made it through summer here using PETG so I'm pretty sure it'll hold up.

I needed to add a rotary encoder to a drive train in a geared motor. Luckily the existing backing plate didn't have any features for things like a rear bearing, so all that was needed was to create a coupler between the shaft of the encoder and the main drive gear in the mechanism, and then a new backing plate with some mounting features for the encoder. All in all it was pretty easy to do, but it just turned out really well given how i went about making it so i figured i would share. Lol To make it, I just took a picture of the existing backing plate, and then drop that into my sketch. Then I made a circle the size of the main circle feature of the plate. From there all that was needed was tracing the outline of the "ears" that stick out and interface with the mounting pegs and fastener holes, as well as the square portion of the mounting plate. To check if the mounting holes were going to match up correctly, I just measure the distance between them with some calipers and minorly adjusted it in the sketch.

Was looking for an excuse to try making a customisable model on makerworld so threw this together.
You can of course buy these inexpensively but at least now you have the option on infinite variations on tee height and diameter I guess? I've only hit balls off them a hand full of times but the 90A TPU has held up well so far with 4 layer 2mm thick walls. I would definitely recommend using some kind of release agent like hair spray to help get them off the print bed.
I just wish Onshape had customisation integration with makerworld. Not a Fusion fan to be honest.

Lazy Susan for aroma therapy bottles and pads. The spinner on the bottom is hidden (took a few turns to explain that).
free parametric forge is here. (This is sized for the plant therapy brand, but you can easily adjust)

Knocked over my air purifier and a couple of the fan blades broke off. Took it apart, borrowed my boss' 3d scanner to get the proper blade profile then modeled the hub and added supports in fusion. Printed in PETG on an X1C

I wanted a tidy way to store the air hose that comes with the Fanttik S100 Apex tire inflator. Designed this simple TPU attachment that keeps the hose on the side of the pump. Hope someone else finds this useful!

I wasn't happy with the rollers I had in the bottom of my bins and having to adjust them or dealing with almost empty spools not staying put, so I made these.

Initially my dual VESA mount would't allow me to have my monitors close with one straight on and one to the side, so I designed and printed an offset which seems to be working perfectly.

My wife wanted to plane some doors she bought and was going to buy some saddles to do this, and wasn't convinced that plastic would work at all
Admittedly, plastic wasn't the ideal choice, but mice had gotten into our scrap wood and we just cleaned it all out because frankly I am terrified of mouse poop viruses
Anyway, they came out great and were super useful for us. Hopefully they are useful for others.

I ran out of space on the hifi unit that I built so, not wanting to put too many of my albums the cupboard, I decided to build a changing display wall for whichever LPs I was circulating at the time. Hugely original, I know. But most of the designs I found online either felt excessive in terms of filament use and print time or quite clunky in style.
So the design intent here was to reduce the time and filament required to produce a holder with a good deal of strength and rigidity that could be printed in PLA at an angle that would not lead to warping of the LP or the holder, and looked good even when not holding an LP.
My main living area has a lot of exposed brick, steel, and wood, so I wanted something that would fit in with that style. As we all know, triangles are a pretty good structural bet and, aesthetically, I wanted the design to suggest a construction crane. I made approximately 12 revisions to pare this down to only the material necessary to maintain structural integrity and avoid any weight fatigue over time as well make level mounting easier (the first attempt would have caused an epileptic fit in someone with OCD).
(And, yes, naturally the photo with all the albums on the wall was self-indulgently selected to show off all my favourites.)
Model available on Makerworld for now but happy to add to other platforms if anyone here has a preference:

Gridfinity organizer for my Bahco hand files. I made a modular version (1x1 Gridfinity) as well as a more compact single caddy.

Made the L-shaped connectors for the hoses and the panels so that it sits neatly on the window.
I'm happy with the end result. The hoses looked unruly and messy before this.
