Are you looking for 3D printing ideas of actual functioning objects? 3D printing is commonly used to print cosplays and decorative objects, but here we are showing that you can print actual functional objects.
1. Acoustic panel
These acoustic panels are a creative project that requires some basic DIY skills. Each acoustic panel consists of six elements, which are assembled into hexagons. Then a base plate is glued on, and a sound-absorbing material is placed inside. In the end, the hexagons are covered with fabric. See the design here.
2. Heart shape necklace
This 3D printable organic heart-shaped necklace is a result of a Valentine’s Day jewelry creator competition that can be a lovely surprise for other occasions as well. It can also be used as earrings when printed in pairs. See the design here.
3. Foldable cloth hanger
These foldable cloth hangers can be printed all at once without support and are a perfect accessory to your wardrobe and convenient when traveling. If only the middle part is opened it can also be used for baby clothes. See the designs here.
4. Ultimate VR and headphone holder
This headphone holder is a decorative and practical way to store your headphone, and it fits most headphones. It can be printed in two parts and requires only 200 grams of filament. See the design here.
5. Chunky bum sitting pot

6. Wall outlet cell phone holder

7. Pliers case

8. Modular baseball cap rack
This wall-mounted baseball hat rack/stand is modular in design so can hold as many hats as you need, just print more sections. The design will support any standard baseball hat. The rack is designed to be mounted on standard countersunk wood screws but is not heavy. See the design here.
9. Bubble blower
This bubble blower works better than its regular versions. It just needs a simple straw. A good tip for the bubble mixture: adding a tiny bit of Fairy washing-up liquid thickens it giving WAY better results. Pouring the mixture into a small dish that you can dip the blower into makes it easier to use. See the design here.
