Brutalist Framing Outer Clamp
Created 1 months ago
Description
A monolithic, brutalist-inspired L-block designed to enforce exact ninety-degree angles on unruly lumber. Engineered specifically to cure the dreaded parallelogram effect in picture framing, this outer squaring jig cradles two boards firmly against its orthogonal walls while the glue sets.
Design Notes:
- Oversized Clamp Cutouts: Generous 44mm slots on each arm easily accommodate standard bar clamps.
- Glue Relief Vertex: A central circular cutout ensures escaping squeeze-out never fuses the project to the jig.
- Rigging Anchor: A central tie-down hole offers a secondary strap point for complicated assemblies.

20mm V-Notch Bench Dog
A drop-in clamping block designed to secure round stock on a workbench equipped with 20mm dog holes. The top face features a continuous 90-degree V-notch that cradles dowels, pipes, and tubular frames, preventing rotation or slipping during sanding, routing, or assembly. Compatible with standard 20mm workbench dog holes Peg diameter is modeled at 19.6mm to ensure smooth insertion and removal without binding Main clamping block measures 50x50x40mm 30mm peg length resists racking under side-load clamping pressure
small Bottle Syringe Clip
A custom-sized double ring designed to couple a 14.5 mm syringe to a 31 mm bottle neck. Syringe bore: 14.5 mm with an 8 mm front insertion slot Bottle bore: 31 mm (snaps on via a 22 mm back slot) Clearance: 4 mm bridge spacing The branding is now recessed 0.6 mm directly into the bottle ring's inner wall, keeping the outer profile completely flush. Check your syringe outer barrel measurement before running this.
Biofloc Monitor Station Enclosure
An enclosure is only as good as the snarl of wires it prevents. This is a heavy-duty two-part monitor housing built specifically for FDM printing, designed to group, separate, and anchor a complete suite of biofloc water-quality electronics without turning into a bird's nest inside. The layout isolates the battery compartment at the bottom and keeps the DC buck converters and relay in a ventilated top section, leaving the central deck clear for the ESP32 and an array of sensor interfaces. Internal divider walls double as cable routing channels, forcing the wiring to stay orderly. Core Features Printability: Both halves print completely flat on the build plate (Z=0). The integrated bottom handle is flush with the front face to avoid overhangs. Dimensions: 170 mm width × 250 mm height × 75 mm depth. Hardware Required: 6× M3 screws for the rear cover; additional M3 hardware for the internal standoffs and the 16x2 LCD faceplate mount. Ports: Bottom panel holds 4× sensor ports (3× 8mm, 1× 6mm) with engraved labels. Right panel holds cutouts for 12V DC, an SD card slot, a rocker switch, and USB programming access.
Hilti Nuron Battery Mount
A wall-mounted receiver bracket for Hilti Nuron batteries. Heavy battery packs love to lever short brackets right out of the drywall. This bracket gives them a solid vertical footprint to spread that load, catching the battery's sliding interface on an internal U-channel with a dead stop at the base. Internal Channel: 63mm wide (48mm opening) Clearance: Counter-sunk screw holes keep the hardware below the sliding surface Detail: Features a debossed HILTI logo on the backplate that stays clear of the sliding path
28mm — Tapered Syringe Adapter
A specialized dual-ring tool designed to connect a small tapered syringe (5–6 mm) to a 28 mm bottle neck. Features Bottle Bore: 28 mm with a straight 8 mm snap-on cutout, finished with rounded entry tips. Syringe Bore: Tapered from 5 mm at the bottom to 6 mm at the top, ensuring a snug fit. Bridge: A short 6 mm tapered solid bridge connecting the two mounts smoothly. Branding: "SE Tool" engraved directly onto both side flanks of the tapered bridge.
LockDrop — Packout Cup Holder
A rugged, drop-in cup holder designed to integrate perfectly with the Packout system. Secures easily onto any standard Packout lid using an integrated twist-lock cleat that sits flush for straightforward 3D printing. The main body accommodates standard tumblers and bottles while the heavy-duty walls and gussets ensure side-load stability. Features Twist-Lock Cleat: Drops into standard female Packout receivers with a friction fit. Flush Base Construction: Designed to print cleanly without complex supports for the bottom locking mechanism. Heavy-Duty Walls: Thickened sides with structural gussets engineered for shop environments. Front Branding: Embossed Milwaukee logo wrapping the front curve for a finished tool aesthetic. Drainage: Integrated center channel prevents liquid and debris buildup.
