DIY Bar end light control

I didn't need a bunch of monitors for work anymore, but still have the stand(s). Figured there was potential there, and created these shelves. The shelves have a recess in the middle to accommodate the hinge that's usually in the middle of these arms. In hindsight, I *could* have made these wider, but they're still plenty functional as-is. Model is available on printables:

Very proud of this

Are we doing spice organizers now?! Here's my IKEA drawer spice jars

Headlamp in general has been a game changer but wearing the included headband is not for me . I’ve been using this print every single day, for months now as an apprentice auto tech. Fits my hat snugly, no moving around, and unlike my previous rendition it clips into the adjustable holster included with the light. 

Durability has not been an issue, survived several hard impacts I thought for sure would have broken it. 

2021R Milwaukee headlamp for anyone interested. Excellent light I have two to get through a day at work.

GF asked to make some hooks so she could hang some led-string to the gutter. Not sure if it will hold when there's stormy weather tho :p

After renovation, I had some light switches that were mounted inside the walls. Using 3D printing, I turned them into in-wall light switches and switches that are mounted on the wall. 

Wire-mounted one is a bit higher, because I poured concrete in it to add some weight.

Was missing the button for the thermocouple for the deep fryer burner. 20 minutes later, design and print. I had a button with an integrated slot to fit a zip tie to hold it down.(thermocouple had failed).  I overlooked the turkey, but wouldn’t have been able to cook it at all without this.

I ripped apart a broken wireless charger and made some modifications to it and designed my own charging station. It’s been on my desk for the last 4 months and works like a dream ☺️

Second quick and dirty fuctional print thus far. Really wanted to shoot in portrait mode for my first photogrammetry project but had no L-bracket or similar.
Drew this up in sketchup, printed in PLA, works as intended. Was a bit worried it would brake since my DSLR aint the lightest, but its rock solid. Project saved. Long live the 3d printer.

Didn't have any CR2430 button cells to hand, so knocked this up to fit one I did have, 15 minutes later and the kitchen scales work again.

Just bought a house a couple months ago and our roommates cat learned how to open the door to escape so I finally got around to a quick fix until I can buy a router to deepen the top hinge space.
