I printed one of the ukuleles on printables.

I designed my own wall hooks, those are pretty great.

Made a stove knob to replace the broken one on my range.

Made a shelf for my freezer out of petg because the original one didn't fit properly and kept falling.

But the crown for me is a dentist office had this little bite block that people would bite down on when they did a 360 xray. The company wasn't making it anymore so they were cleaning it and reusing it. I bought some of that anti bacterial pla and reverse engineered the bite block. Mine wasn't perfect but it was close enough. Made them like 75 of them.
