  1. Someone made another easily movable insert ('quickfix' [2]) that looks an awful lot like my [1] design approach. They put it under a locked-down license and didn't make it a remix of the original HSW (which would also require a slightly more open license).

  2. Really happy how this articulated arm turned out. It can hold quite some weight, the ball joint is print-in-place and you can attach any Screwiverse accessory to it.

  3. I used the to organise these keys. I added a version with a paper label slot and some printed name tags. Works very well! 👍

  4. I finally made it: an XOR mechanism that requires exactly one of two keys to be inserted at a time. I call it the 🗝️ .

    This is very useful for example to track where important small things go: Want to take the car keys? You have to insert your name tag to unlock it.

    My first mechanical project with and it was great!

  5. Getting the hang of ! I managed to replicate the , so now I can make custom shapes with it and work on more attachments. 💪

  6. @Stark9837 @3dprinting Me too. I don't like the original press-fit concept. I print with larger nozzles, layer heights and speeds and this frequently caused the original to not fit at all. My inserts snap into place, lock extremely tightly when something is screwed in, and are just as easily to remove. The with all its attachments is my first real project with and I'm really happy how well it works for designing.

  7. I split all the parts into separate models on :

    It was getting too much different stuff for a single page. I also have the feeling that discoverability on Printables is not great when you put everything into one project.

  8. Yay, 🐙 tentacle-shaped hooks for the 🥳

    Wicked strong. You don't need metal screws at all for the . My Tesa Powerstrips wall brackets and threaded inserts are strong enough (for me at least).

  9. I added functions to examine the distance to the object surface to . Coming from :openscad: @OpenSCAD, being able to examine the object on the fly and include e.g. measurement results into your design is huge. (In you need to code all dimensions from the start, no feedback possible).

    Here is a demonstration of moving an object depending on its size so it's only in a specific quadrant. Handy! 👍
