@tekwiz17 : I’m a model creator. My idea is to make a handhelf vaccum that attaches to the side of your desk. This is where the vaccum is. You can pull a handle out, and turn it on to vaccum up your desk. It sucks everything back to the box on the side lf the desk, and you can pull out the bottom to empty out the trash it collected.

@j3dp1 : or side of printer to pick up poops

@denlabvn : unfortunately can't edit comments. here's one more very useful idea: soldering fume extractor 1. Use Case: Soldering releases toxic lead and rosin smoke directly into a maker's face. This device is a compact, cordless desktop extractor that instantly pulls harmful fumes away from the workstation, filtering the air to keep the user safe.2. Form & Function: It operates as a localized air-purification funnel placed next to the soldering iron. Intake: Captures smoke at the source through filter.3. Why a Handheld Vacuum is Essential: A handheld vacuum cleaner provides the perfect "all-in-one" mechanical hack for this project: Instant Power: It supplies an optimized, high-RPM suction motor out of the box.

@user_3485246752 : I'm an idea contributor. I want to create the Jakovljev Jak-15 plane with a handle.

@denlabvn : as an idea contributor there is possibility to make kits for vacuum bags and boxes for filament spools

@denlabvn : I'm here as an idea contributor, but i'm also a 3d designer as hobbyist. I'd like to make a kit for vacuum forming parts and vacuum chamber for makers. Thank you and good luck everyone!

@Petleft : iam idea contributor maybe you could make the vacuum to help with bear catching while shaving?

@pb4life8 : I'm an idea contributor, design enthusiast (i can also create models). I would like to create an RC vacuum vehicle similar to a garbage truck. It would have a vacuum attachment on the front that collects dust and dirt and stores it in a rear compartment. The rear compartment could then be emptied remotely using a dump mechanism controlled by a remote.

@QuadA : Isn't the first example just a vacuum not a handheld one?

@282929292 : can you plz follow me all do the same Ty have a wonderful day
