Various Family Requests

WAIT, WHAT IS THIS, FROG DUDE HAS A FAMILY???

YEAH! I'm actually in school as of writing this. I still live with my parents because Printables doesn't pay bills. The downside to this is that now I am the go-to problem solver when it comes to 3D printing and CAD.

So. In the interest of my sanity, I have grouped some family requests that were quick and easy to make into one Printables page.  As you can see, I get a lot of family requests with my new printer. I have very little sanity. Let me have this.

DISHWASHER INDICATOR

It's a crow because my dad asked for it and Dad loves Mom, and Mom loves crows. 

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Download the "crow dishwasher indicator" .step file below

2. Select parts 1, 2, and 3 and set them to a white filament

3. All other parts are printed in black

4. Print the model at standard settings

5. Glue a magnet onto the back (the slot is made for a 21 by 7 mm magnet, as that's what I had on hand, but honestly with some superglue you can use any size you want)

6. Let the glue cure

7. Slap it on your dishwasher and call it a day

NOTES FROM THE CREATOR

• CAW CAW BIRDS I CAN DO 2D ART AND COMICS IN ONSHAPE NOW

• Let me know if you have other animals you wanna see on these! I hope to source more PLA once I get paid, so hopefully I can add a green frog one to the collection soon :)

CABINET SHELF MOUNT

Tired of those little plastic mounts falling out and breaking constantly? Try a 3D printed one! 

A request from my grandmother, who's cabinets keep falling apart on her apparently.

PRINT INSTRUCTIONS

1. Select your desired model below with proper bore hole size below

2. Slice at standard or better quality with tree supports only touching baseplate

3. Print in PETG or other strong, heat-resistant filament

4. Congrats! You have replacement parts now!

INSTILATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Drill a hole the same diameter (or slightly smaller) into the cabinet about 1 cm (0.4 inches) deep, four for each shelf. 

2. Press the printed parts into the hole

3. Set the shelf panel onto the mounts, making sure it is in contact with all four mounts

4. Place desired items on shelf

NOTES FROM THE CREATOR

• Don't use TPU or other flexible filaments. Just don't.

• PLA is not recommended, but it works. Maybe don't use it for that cabinet over the stove, though.

• Honestly PETG might not be the best filament either for over the stove? If you have any ideas feel free to comment them :)

• Print on their side triangle side for best results

• THESE ARE NOT WALL MOUNTS! THEY ARE TOO SMALL TO NOT SUPPORT FROM FOUR POINTS!

• They might work for small feeder bowls though. Like gecko bowls. Worth a shot?

Thanks for using my models!
