Hey fellow bird enthusiasts and makers!
I just uploaded my latest 3D printing model: a multi-species bird house with adjustable entrance holes, removable grid floor, and perforated bottom for increased airflow. Perfect for attracting different types of birds to your yard! Let me know what you think.
And if you're interested in more wildlife-friendly designs, be sure to check out my other projects, including smart bird feeders that work with Blink security cameras!

Made this low poly owl ring and it turned out way better than expected, especially with wood and marble PLA. The facets + textured filament give it a really nice carved look.
Printed at 0.08mm and it’s super quick: under 30 mins and ~2g of filament.
Easy to scale for sizing too.
Curious what other filaments would make this pop 👀

Been experimenting with fuzzy skin and realized it works surprisingly well on photo frames. Curious what else people are using fuzzy skin for 👀

Just dropped two minimal photo frames for 4x4” and 4x6” photos!
They have soft corners and an optional fuzzy skin finish that adds a warm, tactile texture.
Prints cleanly with minimal supports, perfect for quick, photo decor or gifting.
Try both the fuzzy and smooth versions and tell me which you like best!

Just uploaded a set of modular furniture joints I designed while upgrading an old IKEA Billy bookcase! I wanted something that was easy to print, required minimal hardware and could attach to standard 1.25" wooden dowels from the hardware store. These connectors are super versatile. You can use them for IKEA hacks, DIY projects or designing your own furniture frames. Profile includes the joint and dowel cap.
Let me know what you think!

This compact succulent propagator is designed to make growing new plants from leaves simple, clean, and effective. It’s made up of three easy-to-print parts. The cap helps maintain ideal moisture levels while letting in light, creating the perfect mini greenhouse.

Just dropped my entry for the Portable Chair Contest—a compact, foldable and lightweight stool that’s lightweight. It's easy to assemble, and surprisingly sturdy for how simple it is! I needed a seat I could quickly stash in the trunk and bring along when fishing. It snaps together without screws or glue, and folds down when not in use. I’ve tested it to hold up to 150 lbs with medium infill. Mix and match colors, adjust the scale, or reinforce the pegs for more strength.

Just in time for spring, I designed this low poly bunny planter—a playful little print that’s perfect for Easter decor or adding some character to your favorite shelf. It fits a standard 2.25” pot, but you can easily scale it to fit whatever plant you’ve got in mind.
The clean, geometric style prints super well without a lot any supports, and looks great in pastel or bold colors. I’ve been using mine for tiny succulents, but I’d love to see how you use yours!

This is my first Maker World upload and I'd LOVE to get your thoughts! It's a bird feeder enclosure for the Outdoor Blink Camera (gen 4). This design allows you to observe and capture close-up footage of your backyard birds without disturbing them.
