Ready To Help The MakerTrons
MakerTron Design Kit by Mold3D
The MakerTron population is in trouble, and their lone known survivor, Remix, needs your help to rebuild. Thankfully, Mold3D has done some great work creating the blueprints you need to get started designing heads, arms and legs for the MakerTron C.O.R.E. This is a group effort that everyone can participate in, and it sounds like the MakerTron could really use your help. With the help of some great sponsors, we’re running an awesome contest to design parts for this open source robot toy platform, and we can’t wait to see what you’ll create. Check out the MakerTron Design Contest for all the info you need!

Chopsticks Padawan
Chopstick’s Little Helper by Pikitote
As a kid I struggled getting that delicious fried rice into my mouth. I just couldn’t figure out how to use chopsticks. Back then there was no Google or Youtube for me to look up tutorials. Until today I didn’t know chopstick helpers existed. It’s great to see that Pikitote has created a 3D printable solution for those that struggle using chopsticks.

Lover of All Things CuteStrike Blob by LITHINES
If you know me by now you’ll see my taste leans towards the cute and quirky. I enjoy this little blob and I love the fact that I can put a little post-it-on-toothpick/matchstick in its hand to voice my thoughts of the moment Check out the “No Milk” photo! It’s a cute little weird creature I’d love to have around the house! Hey, @LITHINES, design a few more silly faced blobbies for me, will ya? ^^

3DRacers – DeLorean by 3DRacers
The DeLorean is a one of a kind car and this model starts to show why leaving room for imagination and discovery. What takes this model even further is that you can actually build it and race it with friends.

I wonder what type of Vehicles MakerTrons race for fun?

Data HoarderTomi 3D Usb & SD Card holder by Tomi3D
I always tend to misplace my USB flash drives, SD/microSD cards and their adapters. This little invention would help me keep them all in one place (hopefully). It’s a very compact designs that can hold a lot of data! There are 4 slots for USB and 4 for SD cards. Very useful addition to my desk. Fits right in with my Practical Prints collection

Pokemon TrainerHigh-Poly Bulbasaur by Skellyton5
As I mentioned in a previous week, I have a young Bulbasaur. He is a nice low-poly pokemon. I was browsing Pinshape and encountered another nice pokemon – high-poly one! I think they may become good friends. After a few epic fights of course.
BTW Skellyton5 is working on completing the list of the first 151 pokemon, then maybe the next 100. He has a lot of cute pokemons to print

Road-TripperPhone Cup Holder Dock by CentaurDesign
This is really useful for me & boyfriend, cause we looove to travel by car. We often use our phones like navigators and it’s very important that you can charge you phone, while it’s showing a route and of course it’s important to be able to see the screen. So this phone cup holder dock is really good thing to have!
