Post subject: | 3D Printing - Designs, Tools and Ideas |
I have designed various 3D printed tools and items to help me out during my Mini restoration and since 3D printers seem ubiquitous, I thought it would be great for the community to have a thread where we can share links. If you have your own, or find any designs that you'd like to share, please post them. Some of my designs (from my Printables profile https://www.printables.com/@Mearcat/models) : Door clamp - This tool helps hold the door while fitting/adjusting them. Suits wind-up and sliding window models https://www.printables.com/model/250164-classic-mini-door-clamp ![]() Panel gap tools - Simple tool for setting car panel & door gaps https://www.printables.com/model/244897-car-panel-gap-gauge-tool ![]() Rear quarter window sanding block - Sandpaper holder for sanding quarter window post-rust repair https://www.printables.com/model/696693-classic-mini-rear-quarter-window-sanding-block ![]() Flexible sanding block - for sanding car panels or anything curved https://www.printables.com/model/505709-flexible-sanding-block ![]() Door hinge templates for aligning hinge holes new A-panels https://www.printables.com/model/871604-classic-mini-external-door-hinge-templates-for-a-p |

Awesome stuff. I made an entire set of dimple dies with 100% infill (took 40h of printing) but worth it. Other stuff like vice jaws and small tool holders has made working in the shed that much nicer. |
