A gyro fidget spinner: three curved rings interlock around a centre post and whirl as one, so it prints in a single piece with no bearings and no assembly - just flick it and go. The rings are loose in their track out of the printer, which is the part that takes a few tries to get right and the reason this one gets measured before it ships.
A phone stand with a woodgrain surface that all but disappears behind the phone, so what you see is the screen standing on the desk rather than the stand holding it. A deep groove with a lipped front edge takes a phone upright for video calls or on its side for standBy and night-clock mode, and it fits anything from a small handset up to a Pro Max. Printed in PLA at 0.2 mm layers, 15% infill, no supports. It is designed for a wood-fill filament, which gives it the grain it is named for, though any matte colour prints just as well. The picture is a render of the printable model - real photographs of the print go up once the first one is made.

A thin blade for digging the lint out of a phone's charging port, with a hook at one end and a flat scraper at the other. 34 mm long and a fraction of a gram, so it prints three at a time in a minute - one for the desk, one for the car, one to lose. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A beer crate for batteries, scaled down to sit on a shelf: stacked sides, a slotted top and a handle you can actually lift it by. Holds a row of AA or AAA cells - pick which, they are separate crates. About 2.7" long. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A desk caddy printed in one piece: a raised back that stands a phone at a reading angle, a round well for pens, and a square tray for a watch, keys or a card, with a slot for a charging cable to pass through. It is 7.1" wide by 3.5" deep. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A flat key tag that holds the key by its bow rather than its ring, so it lies flat in a pocket and does not rattle. 2.2" long, about 1 g of plastic, printed in one piece. Shown as a render, not a photo.
Design by Katejot2017
A planetary gear set printed in place: six small gears mesh between a sun gear and a toothed ring, so turning any one of them turns all the rest. It is 2.5" across and prints as a single piece with nothing to snap together. Shown as a render, not a photo.
Design by HurtTree
A shelf that hangs under a shelf: it clips over the front edge of an existing board and gives you a second tier in the gap, for mugs, spice jars or a router. 6.9" wide, printed in one piece. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A stackable glasses stand: a fin that the cradles slide onto, so the tower grows to whatever height the collection needs. The cradles come in three widths - 67, 77 and 87 mm - and each holds one pair nose-down by the bridge, which suits slim readers and deep sunglass frames alike. The plate prints a whole tower's worth of parts, 167 by 199 mm laid out as the designer arranges it.

A glasses rack that lives on the wall: six cradles in a row on one 210 mm plate, 22 mm deep, so six pairs hang out of the way of a counter or a bedside table. It prints as one piece with nothing to assemble, and the arms take wire or plastic frames by the bridge. Designed by Matthew and printed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0).

A modular glasses stand: a round 143 mm base with a spindle, a post that carries two long arms, and a cradle that stacks on the spindle, so two pairs or a shelf-full can be kept upright and out of the way. The arms take frames by the bridge and the base is heavy enough not to tip when one pair comes off.

A strip that threads onto a guitar strap and holds a stack of picks, so a fresh one is within reach in the middle of a song: 100 mm long and 25 mm wide, printed in one piece. It sits on the strap rather than in a pocket, which is where picks go to be lost. Designed by willywidget and printed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0).

An LP on the wall: a back plate with a shelf the cover stands on and two brackets that hold the record upright in front of it, so the sleeve and the disc are both on show. 218 by 214 mm and 187 mm deep, printed as one piece.

A stand for a pair of drumsticks: a flat 195 mm base and a cradle post that takes them by the shaft, so they stand upright on a riser or a shelf instead of rolling off the kit. 238 mm across as printed, in two parts, with the post sitting in its seat on the base.

Two hexagonal mesh pockets angled into each other, so a pair of shoes sits heel-down without one resting on the other. 220 mm wide, 165 mm tall and 130 mm deep, printed as one piece. Remixed by ThatGuy123568 from jordi_id7's original Shoe organizer on Thingiverse. Shown as a render of the printable model, not a photograph.

Two bands that print as one piece: the finned outer ring's ridge sits in the inner band's groove, so it is locked on but free to spin, with no bearings and nothing to assemble. The groove is a BALL RACE - a circular channel, with the ridge as the same circle held 0.4 mm off it - so the surfaces the two parts face each other across are vertical, which is what lets it print in place and still turn. The ring is 27 mm across and stands 7 mm, and the fins are trapezoids: wide where they join the sleeve, narrow at the tip, so nothing on it is a blade waiting to be knocked. It comes in three sizes, 16.5 mm (US 6), 18.2 mm (US 8) and 19.8 mm (US 10) across the finger hole, all at the same price, and the download is a 3MF with a plate for each, so you can print whichever fits - or all three. Print it with a brim and z-hop switched on: a small ring has a small footprint, and z-hop keeps a moving nozzle clear of what is already printed. The STL on its own is the smallest of the three. The photo is a render of the printable model - real photos of the print go up once the first batch comes off the printer.
A phone stand that folds out of a keychain: the plate swings up and the phone leans back on it, and folded away it hangs on your keys. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A hard hat that goes on a keyring - the dome, the brim and the little ridge down the middle, printed in one piece with a hole through the top. 1.5" across, and it works as a key tag or a desk charm. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A small hook that sticks to a desk or a shelf edge with tape or a screw, for keys, headphones or a cable. 2.6" wide, printed in one piece with a flat back that sits flush. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A little hand that clips onto the page and points at the exact line you stopped on - so a bookmark marks where you are, not just which page. 2.8" long, printed flat with the fingers already free. Shown as a render, not a photo.
Design by helder.bernardo
A bookmark shaped like an alligator, with the jaw clipping over the page and the body lying in the gutter - so it marks the page and the line at once. 3.9" long, printed as a body and a jaw. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A bookmark of a book with a coffee cup resting on the stack - flat, 3.7" tall, and thin enough that it does not mark the pages. Printed in one piece in about a minute. Shown as a render, not a photo.

A flat floral bookmark: one thin spray of three openwork blossoms and leaves that lies between the pages and reads against the paper, marking the page without thickening the book. 5.9 x 4.4" overall and 1.6 mm thin, printed flat in one piece in a few minutes. The picture is a render of the printable model - real photographs of the print go up once the first one is made.

A pencil cup wrapped in overlapping scales, so it reads as a little pinecone on the desk while holding a fistful of coloured pencils. 3.3" across and 3.1" tall, printed in one piece. The picture is a render of the printable model - real photographs of the print go up once the first one is made.

A pick holder with four feet that stands on an amp or a desk: slanted slots take plectrums by the tip so they can be pulled out one at a time, and the block is 90 mm long, 28 mm wide and 12 mm tall. The slots are cut at an angle, which is what stops a pick sliding back down into the holder. Designed by gareth7562 and printed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0).

Four plectrum shapes, two of each, printed flat as one sheet: a teardrop, a jazz point, a wide triangle and a rounded standard, at 1.0 and 1.4 mm so a player can find the thickness they like without buying four packs. Each pick is about 34 mm long and the texture on the back of the thicker ones keeps a sweaty thumb where it belongs.

A practice mute for trombone, printed in three parts: the long tapered body that goes down into the bell, the flared cup that caps it, and the small collar that keeps the two together. 250 mm long and 193 mm across the cup, so it takes a full-size bell. The cup is what does the muting, so the horn can be played in an apartment without the neighbours learning the set list.

A capo in two printed parts: a jaw that sits across the strings and the lever that clamps it down, 92 mm wide so it spans a standard six-string fretboard. It goes on the neck above the fret and holds the strings at the new position, which is what lets one shape be played in any key.

A plectrum printed flat at half a millimetre, 27 mm tall and 24 mm across, with the designer's design across the face - the pun in the name is the whole idea. Thin picks bend more than thick ones, so this is the one for strumming rather than for shredding. Designed by marshal.meacham and printed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0).

Two strands twisted around each other into a pen stand: a double helix about 22 cm tall on a 14 cm square base, printed in one piece with nothing to assemble. Pens drop into the gaps between the rungs and lean out along the twist, so a handful of them fan apart instead of clumping together in a cup - and the base is wide enough that a full stand does not tip. Empty, it is a desk ornament rather than a mug with pens in it, which is most of what a pen holder does all day. Printed in PLA at a 0.2 mm layer, about 34 g of plastic.
