2. Magnetic Chess Set<\/h3>\n

Ever since The Queen’s Gambit appeared on Netflix, have you been thinking about how you can combine your passion for chess and 3D printing? Then this design from JANHARDER is just the thing for you. Prepare to amaze your friends with this magnetic chessboard that allows you to play chess on the go, with the pieces held in place by a magnet. The construction consists of sticking magnets in the holes of the board and under each piece, making sure the polarity is correct so that the magnets stick to each square. The dimensions of the magnets must be 5×1 mm. There are two versions of the board: one for large and one for small printers. If you are using a small printer, the board is divided into four parts that must be joined together with eight clips. Simply insert the clips into the holes and join the pieces together to create a complete and stable chessboard. The JANHARDER design consists of 11 free files containing the chessboard and the different pieces. You can see the step-by-step assembly (in German, but the visual may help) in this video<\/a> and download the free file HERE<\/a>.<\/p>

7. Japanese Table Lamp<\/h3>\n

Make your lighting cozier and bring beautiful lighting into your home with this 3D printed Japanese table lamp that is sure to impress any guest. The base of the lamp has been designed to include a 1-inch hole for attaching a light socket and alignment pins have also been added to make it easier to connect the base and stand precisely. For even easier handling, there is a version with pre-assembled sides that does not require gluing. However, it may be necessary to use supports if your 3D printer has difficulties bridging. Wood PLA is recommended especially for the base, stand and sides to emphasize the look of the lamp. It was printed on an Ender 3 S1 Pro with a layer height of 0.20 mm, a print speed of 160 mm\/s and 10 percent infill. The sides of the lamp were not glued to the base to allow access to the light installation at all times. Find the file HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

8. Car Cell Phone Holder<\/h3>\n

How many times have you been stuck in traffic and needed to use navigation, but didn’t have a suitable holder to keep your phone stable and safe? To solve this problem, BIGBOOMPRINTS designed a cell phone holder for the car that makes driving safer and helps you avoid getting lost in the streets. It is designed to attach to a car air vent and gives you the option of positioning your device either vertically or horizontally. The compact design ensures a firm hold so that the cell phone remains stable even while driving. To mount, simply screw the threaded screw into the floor clamp and attach the round nut to the end of the screw. To simplify the process, it is advisable to heat the nut slightly with a heat gun, as it should be particularly tight and secure. The center piece of the phone clamp should then be connected by inserting a smaller threaded screw, which is secured with a square nut at the end of the screw. The recommended 3D print settings are to support only the center piece of the car phone clip with a 20 percent overhang angle. You can download the design link HERE<\/a> and view the manufacturer’s printing tips.<\/p>\n
