Makerworld has significantly reduced the download/print points awarded to designers. Instead, they have introduced the "Boost" token, which you can apply to models that may not be the most popular (already gaining points from downloads and prints), but are useful or meaningful to you in general. This supports and encourages us, the "losers" (those not focusing on popular themes like Star Wars, car keychains, countless airless balls, etc.), to create more useful or niche designs.

As a biologist focusing on biomedical science, particularly in gene therapies for monogenetic diseases, I enjoy exploring 3D printing as a hobby. I've recently developed an affordable 3D printed liquid aspiration unit for laboratory use, aimed at efficiently removing supernatant from biological samples. I'm pleased to share that these designs have been published in the peer reviewed scientific journal HardwareX, contributing to the accessibility and affordability of laboratory equipment for research. It’s a open access journal, therefore no paywall barrier, you can read the article here https://www.hardware-x.com/article/S2468-0672(24)00003-8/fulltext

This page holds the following models described in the article.

1. GP01-1: Glass Pasteur pipette silicone holder housing cap and connector: This part functions as a connector that links the silicone tube with the silicone holder for the glass Pasteur pipette (either cast using the GP02 mold assembly or obtained commercially). It is securely attached to the M01-1 main unit and paired with the GP01-2 component to house and secure the silicone pipette holder.
