73 People Took “I’ll Make It Myself” To A Whole New Level
What a time to be alive. We’re living in an age where all kinds of information is right at our fingertips, where it is possible to work a full-time job from anywhere in the world, and where one can create instant sculptures using a printer.
Indeed, 3D printing has been all the craze in recent years, and understandably so. And just like any art form, a creative mind can easily come up with something masterful, mesmerizing, and functional enough to be part of daily life.
Here are some examples that may inspire you to get into this endeavor yourself. As always, don’t forget to upvote those that captivated you the most.

Hate Mushy Soap? 🧼 Designed These Modular Soap Dishes To Keep Things Dry And Clean
David Paterson 3 months ago
These would actually work. A solid base and the soap goes all soft. A wire base and the soap goes hard and cracks. These are in between.

Don't you get similar ones for free from cashiers if you ask? Or am I living in a different reality again? But great, practical and easy print if you don't.

A Simple Way To Store A Garden Hose Without Drilling Into Walls Or Using Bulky Hose Reels
Laszlo Larthlanc 3 months ago
Good for short hoses. Hanging 50' or 100' hoses on hose bibbs may or may not cause eventual conduit failure regardless of the type of conduit, but you can bet on this: if the conduit or the connection to the conduit fails it will happen while you're away. Big water bill, lots of possible property damage.

A Compact Shoe Horn That Helps Guide Your Foot Into A Shoe More Easily
Kate Johnson 3 months ago
I get diabetic shoes every year, and they always give me a branded long shoehorn. They're rather useful, I think, but that seems like you'd still have to bend down to remove them? But if it helps them, then that's all that matters!

Stephanie Goadsby 3 months ago
I quite like that! Especially for the kids shoes. I do wonder how long it would be before abandoning the whole thing and just having the shoes back on the floor though. It seems best suited to not often worn shoes.

Almost every comment here is either mean or ignorant. Thank you to the artists and the positive encouragement. Everyone else, no one thinks your snarky comments are funny or intelligent
Mae 3 months ago
I agree with you Heidi! People can be so rude and mean. Who cares if it's an item you can buy in a store or get for cheaper. The person made it and is excited about it. I don't understand why people need to be so judgy all the time: let someone enjoy their creation.
