I find SO many household problems that can be solved, or projects that can be done better, by quickly making little custom parts like these.
What are they? Doesn't matter!* They printed in 5 minutes and helped me with a project. (And I'm still making all of my custom models in TinkerCAD, a web app designed for children, because it's so fast and easy.)

@marcoarment I started in TinkerCAD and am now getting better with Fusion thanks to Claude.ai. Sometimes it gives me steps for older versions of the tool but we get there. I made a custom MagSafe adapter for my dash cam in Fusion far easier than the additive/subtractive approach of Tinker but I would have never of figured it out without Claude.

@marcoarment Happy to see you join the club. It’s both fun and practical.
When/if you reach the limits of Tinkercad, take look at Shapr3D. Pricey, but both accessible for beginners and hugely powerful as you skill up for more sophisticated shapes

I previously also made this custom tool to pull up a difficult shower-drain grate… then also made a new drain filter that significantly improved over the performance of the old one.

@marcoarment Awesome!
Did you design these two yourself or adjust an available model to your dimensions? -

And when my rattly office vent cover finally annoyed me enough… I fixed that, too.

@marcoarment interesting times we live in where 3D-printers can help us with hyper-personalised tools & LLMs are helping us build hyper-personalised software tools.

@marcoarment how the hell did you come up with the design for a drain filter! AI?
