Bio
My name is Josh Butler and I am the creator and owner of Merlinz Designz. For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a huge facination with Graphic Design. I’ve now been 3D Printing for almost three years and have fallen deeply in love with it. Most recently I’ve started learning to 3D model.

Awesome planter! I was able to scale it down to almost 40% without any issues.

Just released another clicky 😄
Emoji Mood Clicky
This one’s a mechanical switch fidget with a bunch of expression caps so you can match your desk mood for the day. I wanted something simple, fast to print, and still satisfying to press, so it’s tuned around a standard MX switch and minimal supports.
There are 18 cap options (plus a blank), and I’m curious which faces people end up using most.
What switches would you try in it? Tactile, linear, or clicky?
Happy printing! 🖨️

Just released a new design 😄
Candy Conversation Heart Clicky
It’s a small mechanical switch fidget inspired by classic candy hearts — simple idea that ended up taking a lot of tweaking to get the click feel right. I also added optional phrase caps and a keychain version so you can pick how you want to carry it.
Printed fast, no supports, and uses a standard MX switch.
Would love to hear what switches you all try in it — tactiles have been my favorite so far.
Happy printing! ❤️🖨️

🎮 New Design Drop: Key Clicker Fidget 🎮
Just finished up this Key Clicker Fidget — a satisfying little desk toy built with 4 single keys and a chunky space bar for maximum clickiness.
Designed to be:
• Fun, tactile, and satisfying
• Great for desk fidgeting or stress relief
• Available as keychain or non-keychain versions
Printed cleanly in PLA+ and tuned for durability, this one is all about that crisp click 😌
If you’re into mechanical keys, fidgets, or just enjoy something fun to keep your hands busy, I’d love your feedback.
👉 Check it out, give it a like, and let me know what you think — or what layout you’d want to see next!

🌱 New Design: HelixBloom Planter with Hidden Message Tray
I wanted to explore how a functional print could carry a little more meaning without relying on surface decoration or obvious theming.
The HelixBloom Planter started as a sculptural vase design, but I reworked it into a fully functional planter with a custom drip tray that hides an interchangeable message plate underneath. The message is only revealed when the planter is lifted—turning everyday plant care into a small, intentional moment.
The tray functions normally for drainage, and the message plates can be swapped or customized. Nothing flashy, just a quiet detail meant to be discovered over time.
I’m really happy with how this one turned out, especially seeing it in use with real plants. I’d love to hear what you think—or how you might personalize the message plates.
Thanks for checking it out 🌿

Hey everyone 👋
I just finished and uploaded a new design called HelixBloom Vase 🌿
It’s a tall, sculptural vase with a flowing spiral and ribbed texture that plays really nicely with light and shadow. The design was fully modeled in Tinkercad, and it ended up being a fun challenge pushing layered geometry and clean curves.
I included two print options:
• Standard Mode for a stronger, everyday decorative vase
• Vase Mode for a lighter, spiralized version that prints faster and shows off the helix beautifully
Both versions print without supports and were tested on a Bambu Lab A1 and A1 Mini.
I’d love to hear what you think — especially which version you prefer, standard or vase mode.
As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome. Thanks for checking it out! 🙌
