I have worked with Polar Filament to get color matched Classic Mac Platinum PLA filament made - only $21.99 per kilogram. WOO HOO! Order now, order plenty, and let them know you want them to print it forever! polarfilament.com/pr...

@reckless.bsky.social I have a billion-dollar idea to build upon the already-vibrant party speaker market using AI, LiDAR, robotics, and home automation: DJ Roomba ULT 2000XAI 4-ft tall robot vacuum robot. Huge capacity. Infinite battery. RGB. Ultra bass. And active cancellation of vacuum noise.

I can't get over how good this looks... This 3D printed M4 Mac Mini case uses a 9.7" iPad panel for its display. The designer, @hofferth.net also has a version that works as a display stand for the @usetrmnl.com e-ink smart display. makerworld.com/en/@Jerrodh #3dprinting #macOS #retrocomputing

The starting point for this project is the incredible wind tunnel model by @hofferth.net www.printables.com/model/849713...

...and here's the full write-up on the eMac mini, with designs and component links for you to print your own! makerworld.com/en/models/10...

My “eMac mini” is just about done. Custom case is printed in Bambu ABS-GF and clear PETG. M4 Mac mini, 9.7" 2048x1536 IPS iPad panel w/ HDMI control board, Class D amp for the speakers. One power cable only, all else routed internally. Coming soon to MakerWorld here: www.makerworld.com/en/@JerrodH

My next project for MakerWorld’s STEM contest is a printable kit for performing lab-grade schlieren imaging at home! With just a few printed parts and low-cost hardware, you can visualize fluid flows by seeing their otherwise-invisible density changes! makerworld.com/en/models/98... Enjoy!

The "Mac mini Pro" Version 2 is now available! Easier and faster to print with only minimal supports required. Better-suited to 2-color printing of the Apple logo. Left- and right-handed options now available! Thanks for sharing and enjoy! Free: https://buff.ly/4gCZ6Eq

I'm excited about this one -- the "Mac mini Rack Pro" system for M4 Mac mini! Securely mount your M4 Mac mini together with popular accessories like the OWC 1M2 SSD, CalDigit TS3 Plus and TS4, Streamdeck Mk2, Focusrite Scarlett Solo Gen4, and more! Enjoy and contribute! https://buff.ly/3P3Vn6S

Later this week I will release two new projects: First will be a “V2” of my Mac mini Pro, revised for even easier printing and use. I will also include a “mirrored” version. Next will be a really fun *modular system* for the Mac mini… Stay tuned!

Had an issue with the SD card slot on my Sony a6300 and decided to try to clean the contacts right before a dance recital. Bent a pin and made it worse. Luckily, I had the time to pivot to recording via HDMI capture on my Mac. Seems I have an APS-C webcam now. Not going to try to repair. :-(

My next 3D-printed design for the M4 Mac mini is a try at something (potentially) useful in some scenarios. It looks like a wind tunnel, directing the cooling airflow for confined or tightly-packed installs. Help me test the idea? https://buff.ly/4iwfhFf

In this month-long sprint, I have amassed quite a collection of fun little designs for the M4 Mac mini and other Apple gear -- thanks for your support and shares! What would you like to see next? More “fun” stuff? A niche functional part? Let me know! https://buff.ly/4gvDGc9

Moof! My latest 3D-printed design is a nod to Apple's "Icon Garden" circa 1983-1998. Featuring Clarus the Dogcow and 7 other classic MacOS and MacPaint icons by iconographer Susan Kare, this is a colorful “bouquet” decorating an M4 Mac mini or standing on its own. https://buff.ly/4feJC8i

This new 3D-printed M4 Mac mini accessory incorporates up to 3 MagSafe chargers as a functional desk accessory. Styled like an iPhone "Pro Max" camera bump, it also can house an Apple Watch charger, so you can keep all your devices topped off. Can also be used w/o Mac mini. https://buff.ly/3ZoqdvY

Latest in my series of 3D-printed Mac Mini shenanigans: a beautiful miniature version of Apple Park’s six-color rainbow stage that features a MagSafe charger underneath! Free at MakerWorld: https://buff.ly/4g10C38

Commemorating my biggest 3D-printing project of the year with a miniature version as a Christmas ornament. 🎅 https://buff.ly/3B9Mky8

The M4 Mac mini is small enough to toss in a bag and take with you while commuting or on travel, so today's CAD experiment is a one-piece TPU bumper case. This protects the edges from accidental dings in transit. Test prints pending -- I'm still on holiday travel. https://buff.ly/4fPee1s

Happy Thanksgiving, all! Here's another fun 3D-printed Mac mini holiday design -- give the gift of Mini! 🎁 https://makerworld.com/en/models/831988

Today I posted a new M4 Mac mini enclosure, this time referencing the original "cheese grater" design of the PowerMac G5 and 2006-2013 Mac Pro. Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. I've really had a blast making all of these fun designs and reading your responses. https://buff.ly/416PhKl

Bringing holiday smiles to my local Apple Store: https://buff.ly/3CDlgYy

Now on the 3D-printer for testing -- a Nintendo NES Case for the M4 Mac mini! It's cute. Free download: https://makerworld.com/en/models/815576 #MacMini

A fun 3D-printed design for the holiday season -- bring some jollity to your desk with an adorable Santa Hat sized perfect for your M4 Mac mini! This is a perfect model to use with the "fuzzy skin" feature of the slicer. It looks great! https://buff.ly/3CHJHnw #MacMini

I drew a bit of attention recently making silly 3D-printed designs for the new M4 Mac mini. 🤪 Here's my larger printable project – a fully-functional wind tunnel (!) for interactive STEM play and exploration, exploring basic aerodynamic concepts with smoke and lasers! https://buff.ly/4hYXypA

I went to help a friend set up her M4 Mac mini, and took some photos with my various 3D-printed accessory designs: https://buff.ly/3Z1DP05 #MacMini

Tonight I added three more app icon "hats" for the M4 Mac mini: Davinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, and Plex. https://makerworld.com/en/models/798273 More additions, plus tweaks to mini and Studio "Pro" cases, are coming soon. #MacMini

Haha, the 2013 Mac Pro “trash can” for M4 mini is 🔥. I have my very own “thermal corner”. 🤣 https://buff.ly/4fWbTRN #MacMini

I am glad to announce 🥳 my first authorized commercial licensee producing on-demand 3D-printed kits for my recent Mac mini (M1, M2, M4), Mac Studio, and Vision Pro designs. Ryan Vogel at Mandarin 3D produces quality prints at a very reasonable price. See here: https://buff.ly/3CIRpxz #MacMini

Test printing the silliest M4 Mac mini accessory I’ve come up with so far… a literal *and* figurative desktop “trash can” (2013 Mac Pro) I’m quickly veering off into the absurd here, but if y’all are still enjoying these M4 mini cases and accessories, I’ll keep at it. #MacMini

More goofy Mac mini 3D prints, now with a bit of color in the style of popular app icons or logos. Current offerings pictured here. Have a favorite indie Mac app, website, or podcast whose artwork you'd like to see as a printable option? I would seek permission first. https://buff.ly/3CyOQhF

Here's yet another fun new 3D-printed design for the M4 Mac mini -- print a decorative "hat" in the form of a colorful app icon or logo. Just 8 are provided now -- let me know what else you'd like to see! I would love to do some beloved indie app icons, with dev permission. https://buff.ly/3CyOQhF

I uploaded an update to the Mac mini Pro case as a fix for a change made in Bambu Studio 1.10 that resulted in the tree supports being too difficult to remove without risking damage to the print. Please see the new Nov 17th version of the print profile for the fix. Thanks! https://buff.ly/4hVnLoW

I now offer a commercial license to sell my Mac mini and Mac Studio printable designs from MakerWorld. This is permitted under the terms and license for the MakerWorld Exclusive program, and implemented on Patreon. Please see the link below to become a licensee. www.patreon.com/jerrodh/shop...

These are amazing. The M4 mini is such a great basis for fun 3D printing projects. Thanks for the hat-tip at the end, Christian!

Howdy BlueSky! I make fun 3D-printing designs. My latest is a fun set of accessories for the M4 Mac mini, Mac Studio, and M1/M2 Mac mini. They look like miniature Mac Pros! Check them all out here: makerworld.com/en/models/79... I also make a working STEM wind tunnel on Printables. 😎
