I have a printer, and have printed too many things to list them all. Categories include mounts, testing accessories, sump mods, light mods, etc. A few of my designs are in the forum database.

Yeah I looked there but didn’t see any sock holders designed to fit a stock tank. I know GEO stopped making his acrylic ones as well. Figured I would ask Around before asking someone to make them

I find myself tweaking with new 3D designs on a regular basis and I made some of them available to the community:


Enjoy!
I like that bristle worm trap! It's oddly fun to catch creepy-crawly things.

My son is solidworks certified. I will get him to design one. What size and brand stock tank? We can go to Tractor supply and get measurements

I have a 2018 Qidi Tech I dual extruder 3D printer that I use constantly. Here are a few of my more recent projects. (Sorry for the poor photo shoot). I print mostly in PLA since it seems easier with this printer and haven't had any issues in my tank (yet).

A nifty frag rack that hangs off the side of my tank with removable arms that can hold either frag plugs or frag disks

A filter floss holder for my IM 40g that is a prototype I'm hoping to modify to hold a Klir Di-4 fleece filter roller (see my build thread for the current modification for the Klir fleece roller to work in my AIO).
