This adjustable wrench is 3D-printed in one single go and the support parts are easy to break away and remove.
For the purpose of taking this image a 3D print was stopped to show a slice of the spanner
A comparison of four different common 3D-print layer heights.
• 0.34 mm/layer - Low (340 microns)
• 0.27 mm/layer - Medium (270 microns)
• 0.1 mm/layer - High (100 microns)
• 0.05 mm/layer - Super fine (50 microns)
These models where 3D printed with blue 1.75 mm PLA plastic filament on a MakerBot Replicator 2 3D printer.

This small device traps dust in a small sponge before it enters the extruder. In some cases it can also be used to easily lubricate the filament just before it is extruded.
The adapter is designed to fit the Replicator (1) and Replicator 2 extruders.
Protecting your 3D printer's extruder from foreign particles is an important part of keeping the machine maintenance-free. This adapter makes it easy to keep the filament clean.
1 - Download the STL file
2 - 3D print it as is with standard medium or fine settings
3 - Cut two small pieces of sponge and place them into the filter case
4 - Close the case with the lid and two standard 3 mm screws
5 - Unload the filament from your Replicator 1 or 2
6 - Remove the filament guide tube
7 - Insert the loose end of the filament into the adapter.
8 - Make sure that it passes through the sponge and slides smoothly
9 - Insert the adapter into the Replicator's extruder hole
10 - Insert the filament guide tube into the top part of the adapter
11 - Enjoy hours and hours of dust-free 3D print extrusion
Check this Youtube video for more information:
Every now and then open the adapter and check the sponge for dust. Replace if necessary.
In some cases filament can jam or cause uneven 3D prints if the friction in the extruder's filament tube is too high. This adapter can also be used to lubricate the filament just before it enters the extruder.

This handle makes it easy to reach deeply into the 3D printer while calibrating and levelling the build platform. It is designed to hold a standard Post-it sticky paper on it's tip.
In most cases the optimal gap between a 3D printer's platform and the extruder's hot-end tip, is 0,1 mm. A common practice is to use a simple sheet of paper and place it on top of the build platform just under the extruder's tip.
The platform is then adjusted to only just let the paper slide freely. The adjustment must be made on all corners and the centre of the build plate until it is perfectly level.
• Download the STL file
• 3D-print it
• Grab a Post-it sticky of your preferred colour
• Stick it on the flat front end of the 3D-printed handle
• Set-up you 3D-printer for levelling the platform
• Place the paper between the the platform and the extruder tip
• Adjust the build plate's screws and move the handle slightly to make the paper slide under the extruder tip
• When you feel a slight friction stop adjusting the screw
• Repeat this process on all corners and centre of the platform until you can feel the same friction on all spots
Make sure that you only use one sheet of Post-it paper and if unsure control-measure it with a calliper to verify 0.1 mm thickness.
After calibrating your Replicator's platform it should remain level for a long time. Until you need to calibrate it next time you can use this Post-it handle for other purposes as follows:
• A very gentle fly-swat (PETA-certified ;)
• A small sign holder you can use to communicate short messages to your office mates

The MakerBot Digitizer 3D-scanned Laser Cat model was used in this test of different layer thicknesses. The cat was scaled down to 50 mm in height and then 3D printed at the following layer heights:
- 0.40 mm (400 microns)
- 0.30 mm (300 microns)
- 0.20 mm (200 microns)
- 0.10 mm (100 microns) - Average width of a strand of human hair
- 0.05 mm (50 microns)
- 0.02 mm (20 microns)
All six cats where 3D printed on a MakerBot Replicator 2 with TRUE BLUE PLA plastic at 230 degrees C.
All layers where 3D printed with MakerWare's standard values as follows:
(400 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 90 mm/s
(300 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 90 mm/s
(200 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 90 mm/s
(100 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 90 mm/s
(50 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 60 mm/s
(20 microns) - 15% infill - perimeters 2 - speed 40 mm/s

Toy crossbow replacement sight for popular suction cup arrow toy crossbow.
This is a spare part for a popular toy crossbow where the front sight often get lost. The model is easily 3D-printable with built-in break-away support structures.
It should fit most variations of this toy weapon. The source CAD file is also provided so that changes can easily be made.
• Download the STL file
• 3D print it
• Remove the support structure with wire cutters or a sharp knife. (don't cut yourself!)
• Place it on the front of your crossbow
• Start shooting strait :)

This video shows the bee of the BEEVERYCREATIVE logotype 3D-printed as several individual parts in four different colours. These where then assembled together.
For the majority of commonly 3D printed items this has the following advantages compared to dual and triple-nozzle 3D printers.
- The results yield better quality
- No oozing and colour-smearing problems
- One can use unlimited number of colours (not only two or three)
- A single-nozzle 3D printer always uses the full range of the maximum build volume
- An interrupted 3D print only affects a small portion of the total print time
- No considerable extra 3D modelling overtime needed since multi-nozzle 3D prints also require individual STL files for each colour

Dessa bilder visar hur ett plastmynt med vår logotyp skapades med hjälp av en ZPrinter 3D-skrivare från Z Corporation. Först skapades myntet och gjutformen i Rhino 3D. Därefter printade 3D-printern en gjutform i gips som härdades med Epoxylim. Efter det kunde flera mynt i plast formsprutas i den 3D-utskrivna formen!

These images show how a plastic coin with our logo was made with the help of a ZPrinter 3D-printer form Z Corporation. First the model and the mold was made in Rhino 3D. Then we 3D-printed the mold with our ZPrinter 650 and hardened it with Epoxy. After that we could produce several plastic coins with our desktop injection molding machine.
