I started uploading my designs on Thingiverse. I’ll probably also start adding them to GitHub too, so that the versions can be managed in source control. Wondering if I should add my Thingiverse profile to my site…hmm.

Delta Kite GoPro Mount
On one end, you loop a string onto your kite string, and add foam tape to the other end. The idea is that the foam tape will pinch on the keel tight enough, and the tight string and keep keeps the camera relatively steady. I got decent results with this version, but it could be improved with a better mechanism to grip the keel, and would also benefit from being a little easier to print.

Laptop Wall Brackets With Airflow
I needed to mount a laptop to the wall to maximize the limited desktop space. I also wanted to make sure the laptop had enough airflow to keep it cool when it was running, and also a design that would allow me to open the lid without removing the laptop from the wall in the process.

So silly, but decided to livestream my video feed from my basement 3D printer setup 😅
Not gonna lie it’s kinda relaxing

3D Printing Kept Its Promise
3D printing is fulfilling the promise it made to me in 2005, and it’s been a genuine joy to dive back into it.

If you’ve been on the fence about 3D printing, I’ve gotta say – it’s gotten a lot more accessible in the last few years.
You can get a really solid entry level printer for less than 200 bucks, and find great print ready stuff for free on Thingiverse. If you’re on the fence, make the jump!

Doing some 3d modeling for a wall mount for my son’s laptop. I long-since got rid of my 3D mouse since I don’t do this enough to justify owning one anymore, but still find myself reaching for the darn thing. Old habits die hard.

This little corner of our dining room is starting to turn into a place for music, so I printed some wall mount brackets to hold what we’re playing on the wall. Love this vibe so much!

Tinkering with my 3D printer today. Let’s see if we can get this bad boy to make something.

IT FREAKING WORKED! I had to make a single minor adjustment – the clip didn’t pinch hard enough. Nothing a cotter pin couldn’t fix! I’ll upload the video soon, but it is really…REALLY stable. I’m positively thrilled by the result!
