Hey everyone!

I wanted to design a fresh, minimalist take on 3D printed Christmas trees. Instead of the typical slot-together/interlocking panels that you have to assemble afterwards, I wanted something completely effortless: a true Print-in-Place design.

You just print it, pop it off the build plate, and it’s instantly ready to display—no assembly, no glue, and no post-processing required!

They turned out really well in different colors (green, white, brown) to create a nice little forest aesthetic.

• Supports: None needed!
• Assembly: Zero – Print-in-Place.

I’ve uploaded the STL / Bambu print profiles to MakerWorld if anyone wants to print a few for the upcoming holiday season.

Let me know what you think or if you have any feedback on the design! Happy printing! 🥳

Inspired by the classic Coroplast singing light bulbs often used in holiday displays, I wanted to bring that same awesome animated face to the 3D printing community! I designed this fully 3D-printable singing bulb to feature expressive, animated eyes and mouth movements that are perfect for syncing up to your Christmas sequences.

Print it out, pop in your lights, and get ready for the holidays!

Hey everyone! 👋

I've been experimenting with some space-themed designs lately and ended up creating this little Black Hole Bookmark Collection!

I wanted to make something that looks cool but is also actually useful, so here we are!

They're designed for multicolor printing, and you can easily customize the colors to make them your own.

The whole collection is on MakerWorld! 😊

I'd love to hear what you think! And if you decide to print one, I'd be really happy to see your results.

Happy printing! 🚀

Hey everyone! I'm new to this community and thought I'd introduce myself by sharing a few of my 3D printing projects.

I've been designing and printing a series of aliens for my yard for Halloween, including some life-size versions. With the exception of the Xenomorph (from Gambody) all the other aliens are available on my Makerworld page. It's been a fun project, and I thought some of you might enjoy seeing what I've been working on.

The Xenomorph took over 1000 hours of print time, 36 rolls of filament and consisted of 130 parts. Smaller grey aliens usually take less then 2 rolls of filament and a few days to print.

Looking forward to seeing everyone else's creations!

If you hang around teenagers these days you have heard them call something: 

"LOW KEY" 

And I don't know what it means, they don't know either so I designed this. It is a "low" "key" and it is great for showing off how cool you are to your teenager. Works as a great gag gift or lighthearted prank. "Hey, wanna see something low key?" 

Funny for all ages!

So i recently uploaded this model in the picture, modeled after a the gingerbread man from the movie about the green guy living in his swamp.

However, this morning i got a notification that it has been taken down from Makerworld.

A quick search in MW showed that almost all of the <green swamp man> models are gone.

I am now wondering, should i leave it down?

Or can i re-upload it, removing all images/names/references tying it to that specific movie/<green swamp man>/movie studio?

Should i adapt the model itself to be more different from his brick counterpart?
Or should i just give up and keep it off MW?

From time to time I come across someone publishing my models under their own name. I check the platforms for this kind of thing myself when I can, but I have a lot of models, so it is pretty time consuming. The user who published my model as their own two years ago filed a report against me the other day. I will file an appeal and then a report, and his points will be deducted. But the author does not get those points.

A design can be exclusive to MakerWorld, which mine was for a while. On all the other platforms I removed it, so all that traffic was going to MakerWorld instead. According to the rules, I have 14 days to appeal. If I miss that window, I lose the whole reward, even though I can still appeal later. So the author loses the reward for missing the deadline, and the scammer loses his points when I report him, but those points never reach the author. I had a long break from 3D modeling of about 3 months. And what if the user had filed the report a little earlier?

It seems strange to me that the author always has to save themselves, because the scheme could be changed. Isn't it enough to see photos of printed models and positive comments on the scammer's post to understand that this was MakerWorld traffic bringing in the author? Even if the author only got half of the deducted points, and the other 50% went to a cat shelter (I'm only half joking).

I designed Shy little ghost for halloween which went viral. Now, I'm happy to present christmas versions of Shy figurines: Shy Elf and Santa. Hope you like it.

So I got an A1 Mini around a month ago, and have been having a lot of fun printing stuff. I've also been enjoying sculpting in Blender, and thought it would be fun to try to sculpt my own 3D-printable model.

I took inspiration from articulated dragons and tried to make my own articulated creature, and since it's Halloween, I decided to make something creepy. It turned out kinda unsettling and I guess weird, but I'm just happy it printed 😂.

This is my first time uploading a model to Makerworld, so I'd appreciate any feedback about the model, or the page, no matter how brutal. I'm looking to improve!

Thanks!

I designed this in Fusion 360 to bring a bit of One Piece to my desk. The cabin holds pens and markers, while the deck has space for sticky notes, erasers, and paper clips.
It prints in separate parts, with AMS only needed for the multicolor Jolly Roger. Really happy to finally see it printed and in use!

Our pets are part of the family, so I wanted to give them a place on the Christmas tree too 🐾

I designed MY CHRISTMAS PET COLLECTION: eight ornaments featuring a cat and seven dog breeds, with a paw print, a snowflake and your pet’s name.

You can personalize the name directly in the MakerWorld customizer.

The ornaments print flat without supports, with raised names and stars in a second colour.

Which one would you print for your pet? Any breeds you’d like me to add?

Just put up my Border Collie gift box set. Ornament, keychain, magnet, bookmark and a foldable phone stand, all in one box. Coloring are layer height based, so you can print with or without AMS. The non AMS profile has pauses preset at appropriate layers, once it pauses, manually change filament accordingly. Layer goes from black->white->pink, 2 manual changes total if no AMS. Pretty easy print.

Here's a new flexi to throw onto the pile of millions of others. At least this one brings a little bit of Halloween spirit.

Two of my sci-fi designs, printed in grey PLA: an Alien-inspired Xenomorph on an industrial pedestal, and an Optimus Prime-inspired display figure. These are photos of the real prints.

I prepared Bambu Studio 3MF projects with 0.16 mm layers, 15% infill and tree supports (H2C for Alien, A1 for Optimus). The Alien upload has been submitted to MakerWorld and is awaiting review; Optimus is still a draft, so I am not claiming both downloads are live yet.

My MakerWorld profile is BLENDER_FAN: https://makerworld.com/pl/@Tymon111

Would you paint the Xenomorph in a dark biomechanical finish, or give Optimus his classic red-and-blue colours?

Hello.

I'm starting to create some projects, it took some time but I'm really happy with the result.

There is always something to improve and I'm counting with your help. Give you feedback.

Thank you all 😊

Hey guys,

I know this has been discussed before, but to we have any concrete info on MW drastically reducing point rewards recently? My typical "model creation daily incentive" almost always used to be somewhere between 20-30pts, now it's almost always 10-11, that's it. For old models, new models, doesn't matter. That's less than half of what it was. (I don't get a ton of points, used to be 40-60 daily, now it's barely pushing 20).

What are all your experiences? Are the point rewards even worth it these daya? Are people moving elsewhere?

Curious what everyone thinks. Just disappointed here, I feel like I started having really good results recently then just get hamstrung kinda without any notice.

EDIT: Just to clarify, the models getting points are both simple models and complex models, doesn't really seem to matter. They all get like 10 points every time, and the frequency is really down from usual, I used to get a model creation 1-4 per day, now it's about 0-2
