3d Pressure from keyboard supports: The one that keeps breaking or getting lost...
Who doesn’t know them: Those little supports on keyboards that make the keyboard stand up and thus improve the typing feel. A tiny part of half a cent, which destroys the whole feeling as soon as it breaks, but of course only accounts for a fraction of the actual device. And, of course, the gizmos have to be slightly different for virtually all keyboards. But this is where a 3d printer helps tremendously: I’ve now printed several different ...

Sailfish OS: Situations
The Situations app is a very helpful companion for SFOS users. It lets the user respond to different situations with automatic actions. You leave the house? Maybe you want to switch on mobile data instead of WLAN? One is in a meeting? Now all indications should be switched to mute? Situations can do it for you.

3d printing: mini spare part for my car
At some point, a small part of my car was simply gone. Maybe the workshop forgot to reassemble it after a procedure, maybe it fell off - who knows. In the end it doesn’t matter, but it annoyed me for a long time and even the authorized dealer couldn’t tell me where to get it back or reorder it himself. So today I looked at the part and thought: Then I print it myself. So that it really looks exactly the same, I probably still have to get ...
