Bedside Reading Glasses Stand, 18mm Bridge
Created yesterday
Description
A freestanding bedside stand that holds a pair of reading glasses by the bridge, so they rest off the nightstand and out of the bedding. The top of the column is shaped into a rounded nose-bridge saddle, 18 mm wide at the rim, matching the typical lens-to-lens distance on standard reading glasses. A 90 mm round base keeps the stand upright.

Vertical Switch Dock Stand with Strap Slots
A Switch dock lying flat eats shelf space, and a dock stood on its end tips over the first time someone pulls a cable. This stand holds the dock upright in a snug pocket on a wide flat base, and keeps two spare Joy-Con straps in slots in the side walls. What it does Holds the dock on its end so it takes up a footprint of about 142 × 92 mm instead of its full 175 mm length lying down. Front wall is cut down in the middle, so you can grip the dock to lift it out. A 70 mm opening in the back wall lets the power, HDMI and USB cables leave without bending against the stand. Two 4 × 16 mm slots, one in each side wall, hold spare Joy-Con straps. Numbers that decide fit Pocket: 106 mm wide × 52 mm deep, for a dock of roughly 104 × 49 mm. That leaves about 1 mm of play on width and 3 mm on depth. Pocket depth: 44 mm, above a 6 mm base. Overall: 142 × 92 mm base, 50 mm tall. Side walls: 10 mm thick. Front and back walls: 8 mm. Printing Print flat on the base, with no supports needed. Chamfered edges, 1.5 mm. Any common filament works. PETG or PLA is fine for the load. If your dock is a tight fit or loose, adjust the pocket width and depth to match.
Perch — Clamp-On Headphone Holder
Perch is a three-piece desk-edge headphone holder: a main body with hook and clamp jaws, a separate threaded adjustment screw with a large scalloped knob, and a loose pressure pad. Nothing is joined or printed in place, so the parts are laid out separately and assembled by hand after printing. Features Clamp range of 15–35 mm, suited to a 20 mm desk Internal thread in the lower jaw with 0.4 mm radial clearance for the 18 mm, 4 mm-pitch screw 40 mm knob with scalloped grip Pad snaps onto an 8 mm peg at the screw tip and spins freely Reinforced hook with gusset and rounded lip Print notes Body on its side, screw knob-down, pad flat PLA, 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.20 mm layers, 4 walls No supports expected Assembly Thread the screw up through the lower jaw from below, then press the pad onto the peg. Set the source's mode value to 1, 2 or 3 to export each part individually.
30° Tilted Stand for 118x84mm Keypad
Wedge-style desk stand that holds a 118x84mm macro keypad at a 30° tilt, so the keys face the user instead of lying flat. The pad sits in a recessed pocket that grips its base on all four sides to stop it creeping during use. A finger notch at the front edge lets the pad be lifted out. A cable slot at the back edge routes the cord away from the desk surface. Specs Pad size: 118 x 84 mm Pocket clearance: 0.3 mm per side (0.6 mm total on each axis) Tilt angle: 30° Overall footprint: about 124 x 80 mm, roughly 53 mm tall at the rear Wall thickness: 2.5 mm Front notch: 40 mm wide finger cut-out for lifting the pad Cable slot: 24 mm wide, centered on the back edge Underside: flat; add rubber feet or tape for grip on smooth desks Print orientation: flat side down, no supports needed Notes Check the pocket depth and cable slot position against the actual pad before printing. If the cable exits somewhere other than the center of the back edge, the slot position needs to be moved.
Neewer Mini to Bowens Adapter
LumenLock is a round bayonet adapter that takes a Neewer mini mount and presents a female Bowens-style socket. A 104 mm body carries a 95 mm pocket, and three inward tabs grip the male lugs of a Bowens-headed light: the lugs pass through the gaps between the tabs, then lock when you twist. The 60 mm centre opening and the four 4 mm mounting holes at 45° spacing pass straight through, and the whole part sits 16 mm tall, so it adds little depth between the light and the modifier. Dimensions Body: 104 × 104 mm Overall height: 16 mm Socket pocket: 95 mm, cut 5 mm above the base Tab opening: 84 mm across Centre opening: 60 mm Mounting holes: four at 4 mm, 45° spacing Tabs: three, each spanning 40° of arc Fit notes The socket and tab sizes are estimated rather than measured from hardware. Check your mini mount's bolt spacing and test the tab arc and the pocket depth against your Bowens male fitting before committing to a long print; real mounts vary, so adjust the hole positions or tab geometry to suit your hardware.
Bearing-Driven Tri-Lobe Fidget Spinner
A classic three-lobe hand spinner, the shape every desk drawer has seen, rebuilt around a real 608 skate bearing so it spins freely for a long time. The body has a bearing pocket in the centre, a lip underneath to hold it, and weight-saving holes in each lobe. Two small caps press into the bearing's inner ring from either side to make the finger pads. Notes You need: one 608 bearing (8 × 22 × 7 mm). Print: body flat; the two caps print flat-side down beside it. No supports. Assembly: press the bearing into the pocket from the top, then push one cap in from each side until they meet. Tuning: if the bearing is loose or tight in the pocket, adjust the pocket diameter slightly. Remix: the lobe holes can be enlarged to take 608 bearings as extra weights.
Candlestick Crown Blade Pocket Bookmark
A tapered graphite blade crowned by five candlesticks whose uneven heights still read as a single mountain, with a clear central peak and a natural descent to each side. It sits in the same family as a market-chart skyline, turned into a slim physical object. The lower taper holds an internal page pocket with a flexible inner layer. The page edge enters from the opening near the top of the taper, and the crown stays above the book. Five candles with wicks, two of them hollow ALGOROCK as a fine 0.3 mm raised purple wordmark along the blade Prints flat in one piece, with no supports PETG is recommended for the thin inner layer
