Universal Split-Peg Node
Created today
Description
A cubic structural node featuring universal split-peg snap joints on all faces.
- Identical Connectors: The top, side, and bottom faces all share the exact same split-peg geometry for multidirectional building.
- Tuned Tolerances: A 0.2mm radial clearance on the snap bulge allows the pegs to flex inward and securely lock into the internal cavities.
- Solid Body: Cutouts have been removed to ensure the internal cavities do not intersect, preserving the structural integrity of the snap mechanism.

1U Omada Split Rackmount
A 1U split rackmount designed to securely hold a TP-Link Omada ER605 Router and an OC200 Hardware Controller in a standard 19-inch rack. The mount is designed to fit onto most consumer 3D printer beds by splitting exactly down the middle. The two halves securely lock together via three jigsaw joints on the base plate, requiring no glue or external hardware for assembly. Features front cutouts sized precisely for the ER605 and OC200 Internal guide walls hold devices squarely in place Rear stops are dimensioned to position the front faces of the devices exactly flush with the rack plane Base ventilation slots reduce filament use and aid passive cooling
OsteoHinge — Resettable Femur Simulator
This anatomical simulation bone is designed for realistic mechanical training and demonstrations. Modelled at a compact 200mm footprint to suit standard print beds, it features a functional, re-settable fracture mechanism built straight into the main shaft. The midshaft utilises an interlocking V-notch joint tailored for sudden directional failures. By threading elastic shock cord through the central internal channel and tying it off in the polar counterbores, the bone is tensioned. It rests firmly aligned and rigid until lateral force (a "push") hits the threshold, causing the V-notch to ramp open and cleanly hinge to simulate a fracture. Stopping the lateral pressure causes the elastic cord to snap the halves immediately back into the unmarred state. Assembly notes Hardware: Requires one length of 3-4mm elastic shock cord. Tie-down: Feed cord completely through the continuous central bore, stretch for the desired breaking tension, and secure via simple knots. Both ends feature counterbores specifically to hide the tie-offs. Scaling: Feel free to scale the assembly up uniformly to simulate a full adult male femur (~225%), but note you will require a correspondingly wider elastic band.
Slotted Plank Deck With Pipe
A wooden-style planked deck, built at 45mm wide and 100mm long. Features two longitudinal slots and an elevated side pipe resting on 2mm pads. The opposite edge includes a 3mm wall, all contained within the requested footprint. 45x100mm overall deck footprint 6mm side pipe mounted on spaced 2mm pads 3mm retaining wall opposite the pipe Twin longitudinal slots (2mm wide, 1mm deep, 6.5mm apart)
Pegboard Utility Knife Holder
A drop-in holder built for standard utility and carpet knives, mounting flush to small-pitch pegboards. A generous front thumb cutout makes retrieval quick, while the three-peg top row distributes the weight. Form & Fit Internal Clearance: Sized at 40x20mm internally to comfortably swallow standard sliding break-off blades. Board Specs: Engineered specifically for 12mm center-to-center grids with 4mm holes. Pegs are 3.6mm to provide an easy slip-fit. Drop Spacing: The lower stabilizing bumpers sit exactly 36mm (three 12mm increments) below the main hooks to align with the board's grid. Orientation: Best printed upright. The 45-degree angle on the hooks easily clears standard overhang rules without supports.
Round to Rectangular Duct Adapter
A heavy-duty transition duct adapter for shifting airflow smoothly from a round inlet to a rectangular port. Designed with a continuous linear loft and constant 3mm wall thickness to minimize turbulence. Round inlet: 250 mm inner diameter Rectangular outlet: 300 x 220 mm inner dimensions Total height: 200 mm (including 30 mm attachment collars on each end) Wall thickness: 3 mm
M3 Socket Head Diamond Knob
What it's for A compact thumbscrew knob designed to press-fit or glue onto the head of an M3 socket head cap screw. The closed top provides a clean finish while the heavy diamond knurling ensures excellent grip. Dimensions Overall Size: 12mm diameter × 8mm height Recess: 5.5mm diameter, 3mm deep (sized for an M3 socket head) Knurling: 35-degree pitched V-groove diamond hatch Print notes Print flat on its base. No supports are required. If the bolt head is slightly loose, a drop of CA glue in the recess will lock it in permanently.
