  Sink cover to catch bits. Every time I move to a new place, I print a new one. Just a simple PLA one lasts literal years. I had my last one for close to 4 years of daily pouring down boiling soup and other crap until I poured some 35% vinegar accidentally.

      Well it doesn’t fall apart and boiling water is only 100C, and it’s not like it’s sitting in the boiling water for long

    Drops? Or props?

    If props, do you use a generator that you might be able to share?

  I’ve only made and printed a couple things on my own, but I find the outlet cover that goes up against my bed useful

  Card holders for board games. Normally a thick deck tends to slip around, and the bottom card can be hard to pick up. We now keep a few holders for the standard sizes, and use them if a game needs any. So convenient.

  Not sure it’s the most useful in a day to day sense, but was great for a d&day darksun campaign. I have got quite a few grom gloomykidminis, great quality
