I wanted to cut three openings in a worktop; the easiest way to mark them out was to create a 3D model from a photo in order to produce a 3D-printed template…
To be able to mark out consistent holes on the rhombus strips without having to measure them, I drew a small template using a photo of the strip and 3D-printed it…
Slightly modified and duplicated in the slicer:
(Printed in PLA with a transition layer made of PETG as support – a very good method for smooth overhangs)
We always put a bin in the awning when we’re camping. After a few days, there’s usually a trail of ants marching up and down it. Hopefully, these base pads – into which you can pour a small amount of cooking oil – will act as a physical barrier to the little creatures.
It was more important to me to have a good place to store the ingredients when making pizza; perfect alignment wasn’t that important to me here. When I’m not making pizza, the inserts are stowed away in the base cupboard anyway. With a bit of wiggle room, the inserts slide in and out very easily.
Aha, a pizza Mate! We have our own pizza every Monday using 00 flour dough. Starting on Sunday, we’ll either make fresh dough or pop frozen dough balls in the fridge to thaw, so for 'em to prove all day tomorrow.
Right then, you’ll also need to 3D-print a template to map out where your different cheeses, mushrooms and onions are going, plus a 3D-printed dough press to knock the base into shape.
(I’d actually incorporated openings for cable ties, but thanks to the rigidity of the tube and the fact that it’s installed from both sides, the tube is already held in place very securely.)
The bracket for our shower head has snapped off. I’ve printed and fitted a replacement. It’s secured using a ‘puzzle tab’ and holds together better than I’d feared, even though it’s only a few print lines wide.
Immediately after installation, my daughter pointed out that the original could be rotated, and that this isn’t acceptable in the new fixed version. There will (have to be) another version…
Second revised version, which my daughter is happy with again. There’s a TPU ring in the middle, and I can use the screw to adjust the pressure on the ring so that the shower head can be rotated but stays in place in any position. Let’s see when I’ll need to readjust it…
