Did you know the global 3D printing market was valued at $13.84 billion in 2021? It’s expected to grow almost 21 percent each year until 2030.
With so many printing options available, it’s no wonder this industry is growing so fast. Whether you’re just getting started or you’re looking for new things to create, though, there’s something out there for you. Luckily, we’re here with a few of the best and most practical things you can make for yourself.
Read on to learn five cool things to 3D print.
- Drawer Organizer
Whether it’s your desk or your kitchen drawers, you’ve probably dealt with some cluttered spaces before. There are only so many ways you can store your stapler, scissors, pens, notepads, and other random tech gadgets neatly without an organizer. With an organizer, though, the possibilities become endless.
The best part about printing your own drawer organizers is that you can create custom options for the things you consistently need. A photographer’s desk setup is going to differ a lot from a chef’s kitchen drawers, so it’s vital to take stock of your needs and create a custom solution.
- Purse or Trashbag Hooks for Your Car
Gone are the days of placing your purse on the ground, or keeping a bag on the floor for trash. Now, you can make your own hooks to hang things from during your drives!
With programs like Womp 3D, you’ll have anything you can imagine in no time.
- Headphone Stand
If it feels like you never have a place for your headphones, now you do. Headphone stands are great for either your home or the office, and the best part is it’s completely custom and built exactly to your specifications.
- Cable Holder
Gone are the days of endless amounts of cables taking over your desk or entertainment unit. Designing your own cable holders is a great way to not only make them match your setup but also to make them exactly what you need.
- Side Table
If you want to get really crafty, you can make your own side table! The beauty of 3D printing is the fact that you don’t have to print everything whole. That means you can print part by part to achieve your desired look, and then all you have to do later is assemble.
The parts you’ll need to print: A table base, two junctions, and a handle. To buy, you can grab a wooden panel and a curtain rod made from wood. Once you’ve got everything set up, you now have a table that can easily transfer from the living room to your bedroom for anything you might need.
