Yup, attached... and here's a link to the Onshape where I created it (so you can edit if you want):
I taught the comb you made would work for my woof, but it struggled with the amount of embedded hair I had to deal with..

So I made up a new comb based on your design that was a bit more sturdier and yes it did work better, thanks Rob..

WOW, I'm surprised I haven't posted to this thread in forever!

Today's print = Sprinkler timer cover:


This timer has a screen and rubber buttons sitting in the super hot / UV sun all day. I figured I should protect it. So, I modeled this up and it fits perfectly! I printed it out of PLA and don't expect it's going to last forever but figured even if it softens up it will just fit slightly better. Lol.

That certainly put a dampener on it..:lol:

Lovely job, 3D saves the day once again.. :thumbsup

The pull tab on my jacket zip broke, so I used a paper clip and enclosed it in a specially made cover.. Now I’m back in business..:old

The hand trolley I use to move larger bits around the garden, had the tyre split on it, so I decided to make a new wheel for it, then decided making two was a better idea, it only took a full roll of filament, so now it's up and running once again.. Just perfect..

I got a new car recently. Today I printed a dedicated funnel for the screen wash reservoir. I found and downloaded a not very nice model which I used as a guide to design this one. PETG printed in vase mode.

The car has a wireless phone charging tray. My phone and case has such a big lens bump that it won't reliably couple with the charging tray constantly dropping in and out which is worse than not charging at all. I designed and printed a carrier so the phone sits flat and hopefully (not tried yet) far enough away so the charging tray won't activate.

I use magnetic USB C coupling on the phone so a wired connection isn't much hassle. If I really want wireless I could probably rework this carrier and embed a magsafe charger

Brilliant !
Did you use PLA ??
I've been really happy with TPU for stuff like that because it's so durable and gives a little bit of flex

This is fantastic! I love these practical prints.

The very vast majority of the prints that I make are practical and often fixes to things around the house.

That said, I saw a model that I just had to print using thermo temperature-sensitive filament.
