Hey, I thought I'd start a new thread because after just buying my third printer I feel like I'm a qualified 3d printing nerd. 😉
I just ordered a new printer and already have a flashforge AD5X and a flashforge AD5M. The new one is going to be quite a step up... I'll post pictures when it comes!

I also do a lot of designing so I might throw in some pictures of stuff I've designed every now and then. Feel free to post what you've been working on in here as well!

Anyone else have printers and want to show them off?
 
This was a simple but effective solution to enlarging the boost and mute buttons on a sound pedalboard.
Now they're easier to step on the right one when playing a solo.

I was just asked to replicate a part for a pressure washer but add some length. I guess its a hose holder and it needed to be longer.
Here it is. I have to print it now but my 2 printers are both busy 🤔

I know it looks kind of crumby in the software but it'll print well I think.

New printer came in today. Creality K2 Pro
This one is much better than the other ones I have
It has a 300mm build plate which is 80mm bigger than the other two I have.

I designed and printed a fuse cover for a mower we have that was missing it.
Handy thing about it is that I couldn't find the part anywhere else!

About 5 and 1/2 hours I think it was. I did both pieces in one print with a dovetail joint to connect them.
 
Designed this charging dock for my mouse, MagSafe charger (my phone) and space mouse. They mouses (mice?...) charge while being organized. double points!
There's also a compartment for the slack in my cables underneath the chargers.
