3D Printing: Clothing rod holder

My closet grew under far too many T-shirts from years of keeping and so at some point need the plastic piece that should hold the clothes rail. Since of course first, at least until a new closet can be purchased a replacement part to fix the problem at least temporarily. This worked so well that I’m almost tempted to keep the wardrobe, but since there are other construction sites on the wardrobe and it really is already 20 years old, it will ...

3d printing: stove button replacement

We have an older stove that unfortunately has a somewhat fragile design with its knobs. At some point, a small part broke off, which unfortunately causes the whole knob to spin, leaving you with no way to properly control the heat. So I built a replacement design and printed it on my FDM to replace the broken off knob. It works great by the way :).

The small award

Since our apprentice graduated last year and now leaves for further tasks in the world, I have a small award in 3d printed by FDM process and assembled from two parts and given away as a farewell gift. You can see the result here (or a version. The final version also had the holes already integrated, because it was easier than drilling the holes afterwards): All the best and I hope you have a lot of fun and interesting challenges ahead ...

X or Y offset when printing with the Replicator 2

Every now and then there is a little problem with the Makerbot Replicator 2. Every now and then means: After 6 years I have a little problem with the printer again, because it slips a little bit during printing and thus suddenly continues the print at a wrong place. There are a few different possibilities why this happens and here are 2 links or videos what you can do about it: Problem 1: Loose belts / retensioning the motors. At some point ...
