Point-and-Shoot Egg Caddy
Created today
Description
A fun, functional holder for two standard chicken eggs styled exactly like a classic compact digital camera. Built to mimic realistic compact proportions, this design features an array of modular, colour-separated printable pieces — from the multi-stage lens assembly to the top control dials and rear screen — that socket precisely into the main camera block.
Print notes
When you load the main STL into your slicer, simply use the "Split to Objects" or "Split to Parts" function. The model is built entirely from mathematically separated, non-overlapping shells. You can then recolour each piece (the outer lens ring, screen insert, shutter button, etc.) for a multi-colour print, or delete the ones you've already printed and run them off in batches of single-colour filament.
Assembly
All separate pieces sit perfectly flush against shallow 0.5 mm recesses on the main body. Once printed, they drop neatly into place with a dab of glue.
Features
- Secure, deep recesses for two standard chicken eggs.
- Fully cleared top deck — the mode dial and shutter button sit out on the shoulders so you have unhindered access to drop the eggs in and pick them up.
- Dedicated 40×20 mm flat recess on the back panel designed specifically for a company logo or custom sticker.

43mm Bore Egg DSLR Kit
A multi-part glue-together camera chassis built around a 43mm bore standard to hold two large chicken eggs. The main chassis houses the egg bores and the right-hand grip, while all dials, rings, and screens are printed separately and dropped into 1mm alignment recesses on the main block. Fitment Fits two standard large/jumbo chicken eggs (vertical clearance is completely unimpeded) Mounts to flat build plates only; requires CA glue or similar for the detail pieces Main chassis is 125mm wide; ensure your plate can handle it before starting
Farmhouse Fowl Egg Cradle
A stylized, softly rounded chicken figure designed to serve as a breakfast egg cup or countertop display. The back features a contoured recess sized to securely cradle a standard large chicken egg, resting on a flat base for stability. Design Notes Capacity: Holds one standard large egg (up to ~45mm diameter). Printability: The base is cut perfectly flat to sit on the build plate. The egg recess curves gently upward to avoid steep internal overhangs. Assembly: Modeled as a single solid piece; the colored regions are for visual reference and multi-material painting.
Professional Egg Transport Case
What it's for A heavy-duty, miniature equipment case engineered to safely transport precisely two standard chicken eggs. It features a rugged ribbed exterior, mechanically hinged lid, cam-action latches, and a folding front handle — designed entirely around a genuine Pelican-style aesthetic. The egg recesses are integrated cleanly into the base block, spaced with a center finger groove for easy retrieval. The top lid carries a clean, framed blank plate ready for your own branding. Dimensions Overall footprint: 130 mm wide by 90 mm deep Closed height: 55 mm Internal capacity: Specifically contoured for two 45 mm x 60 mm eggs (large/XL chicken eggs), leaving a generous 3.5 mm top clearance. Print notes Orientation: All pieces are laid flat in their ideal printing orientations. The upper lid is flipped to print face down. Tolerances: Hinge mounts and pins are designed with 0.3 mm radial clearance. A well-tuned printer will allow the pins to slide right into place. The latches snap firmly over the base hooks. Supports: No supports required. The hinge knuckles and latch mounts feature steep bridging, but standard FDM cooling handles this easily. Adhesion: The cylindrical pins incorporate subtle flats on the bottom edge to ensure they don't roll off the bed mid-print. Assembly No hardware required. Press the 26mm pins through the rear hinges to mate the base and lid, the 20mm pins through the front latches, and the short 15mm pins through the handle mounts. Everything relies on reliable friction fits and printed mechanics.
36mm Bore Honeycomb Egg Dispenser
An upright, gravity-fed egg dispenser scaled for a 36mm bore, fitting quail or small pullet eggs. The Fitment: 36mm internal width. This will immediately jam on standard grocery store Grade A Large eggs. The Structure: Uses a 1.8mm solid-web honeycomb shell to reduce material use without sacrificing structural rigidity or leaving isolated printing islands. The Feed: Features an internal 18mm high sloped ramp leading down to an arched dispensing port.
Silo-Chute Bag Clip
A miniaturized silo gate for the kitchen counter, built to route dry goods smoothly from bag to bowl. It merges a rigid slide-action seal with an integrated pour channel, ending the morning ritual of scattering cereal and rice across the floor. The two-part mechanism locks down folded plastic tight against moisture, while the tethered plug keeps the channel safely closed between pours. Design Details Slide-On Seal: Replaces weak spring hinges with a continuous sliding compression sleeve for a tighter grip. Flared Channel: The 15mm inner diameter spout guides grains and small cereals directly to the target without the need for a separate funnel. Integrated Tether: A flexible arm ensures the tapered sealing plug is never lost in the kitchen drawer.
Galaxy Cap & Pets
A standalone pop-top can cover designed for easy swapping of customizable 3D-printable pets. Hooks for Remixing The Peg System: The mounting peg on the cap is a standard 3.8 mm cylinder, sitting slightly toward the back edge. Any custom object with a matching 4.2 mm socket will drop right on. Skull Profile: The flat skull on the cap is an exact scaled-down copy of the original 3D geometry. Expansion: Want to add more utility? You could stretch the cap base horizontally to house three or four pets simultaneously, or angle the peg so the figure faces upward when the can is open.
