Snap-Fire — Auto Crossbow
Created today
Description
A fully print-in-place auto-reloading mini crossbow.
This model is scaled for standard 6mm airsoft BBs and features a gravity hopper that drops the next shot right onto the firing groove every time the string is drawn back.
Features
- Auto-Reload Hopper: Stack 5-6 BBs vertically; pulling the string cycles the next shot.
- String Guide Tracks: Side rails capture the rubber band on release so it flies perfectly straight without jumping off the barrel.
- Print-in-Place Trigger: The trigger mechanism prints fully assembled with a built-in pivot pin. Just wiggle it free after printing.
String a standard rubber band between the side notches on the front arms and feed it through the guide tracks to shoot.

Wide Brim Elliptical Hat
Here's a baseline wide-brimmed hat shell, anchored around the 170x200mm elliptical clearance requested. It is built flat to maximize bed adhesion for large-format printers, treating the build plate as the brim's reference plane. The dome is a simple half-ellipsoid that covers the core geometry, leaving plenty of room for modifications. Remix Hooks Crown Height: Set to a default 100mm. Scale the Z-axis of the crown geometry if you need a taller top hat or a shallower boater profile. Brim Contour: It is completely flat right now to survive the first layer on a 400x400mm bed. You could run a slight Z-warp over the outer 50mm to give it a swoop, though that will require supports. Material: At 2.4mm thick, this is dimensioned for standard rigid filaments (PETG/PLA) to hold its shape. Dialing the thickness down to 1.2mm for TPU would give the brim some authentic flop.
50mm Strap Castleman Stroller Tag
A two-tone stroller tag built to ride on a standard 50mm webbing strap or carabiner. The mounting slot clears most heavy-duty hook-and-loop closures without binding. Mounting Bore: 50x6mm Dimensions: 110x65mm Profile: Flat multi-level face for easy two-color filament swaps. Designed specifically for the Castleman family, carrying a classic '95' racing motif.
Smooth Swept-Wing Flexi Butterfly
A robust print-in-place flexi butterfly with perfectly sweeping, organic wing shapes. I stripped out the old jagged polygon boundaries and replaced them with tangent arcs—giving the wings a true biological sweep while keeping the hinge exactly where it needs to be. The antennae are anchored deep into the head block, so they'll actually survive a drop or two. Remix hooks Wing span: Currently sweeps out to roughly 108mm across. You can pull the outer hull coordinates further out for a longer wingspan. Vein pattern: Driven by basic hulls intersecting the wing body. Easy to swap in your own grid or voronoi generator. Hinge tolerance: Locked at 0.4mm clearance on the barrels and pins, which works beautifully for standard PLA. If your printer over-extrudes, scale the pin down slightly.
Thumb Wrestling Ring Mat
A miniature desktop arena designed specifically for thumb wrestling. You insert your thumbs up through the floor cutouts, giving you a confined, roped-in stage to settle disputes. It’s completely absurd, but it prints in place and works exactly as advertised. I left the geometry simple so you can tweak it to your liking. Remix Hooks Thumb clearance: The floor holes are currently set to 24.5mm. If you're printing this for kids, scale that down; for larger hands, you might need to bump it up. Stakes and ropes: The turnbuckle posts are 5mm thick and the ropes are 2mm tall frames at 17mm and 26mm off the deck. You could easily swap the solid ropes for small holes in the posts and thread real elastic through them instead. Mat thickness: The base is 10mm thick, which gives it enough rigidity to survive a match without snapping.
Haven Embossed Gift Tag
A simple, printable gift tag featuring embossed text and a raised border. Designed for clean dual-color printing using a simple filament swap at Z=2.0mm. Dimensions: 75mm x 35mm Attachment: 5mm hole located near the left edge Customization: The text and base plate thicknesses are separated to make manual pauses straightforward. Print Settings: No supports required. Print flat on the plate with the text facing up.
Classic Stacking Ring Toy
A classic educational stacking ring set designed for early motor skills. The design features thick, fully rounded components to eliminate sharp edges and ensure safe handling. The generous clearances make stacking easy for small hands. What it's for Perfect as a robust, classic nursery toy or a personalized gift for a toddler. It teaches size sorting and hand-eye coordination. Dimensions Overall Height: 130 mm Base Plate: 100 mm diameter Stacking Rings: 85 mm, 70 mm, and 55 mm outer diameters Internal Clearances: 1.5 mm gap between the post and the rings to prevent binding. Print notes Print the rings and base separately on their flat bottom faces. Use a high infill for the base to give the toy a low center of gravity. No supports are required for any of the parts.
