Upgrade Your 3D Printer With These 3 Essential Prints
If you own a 3D printer, you know the little things make a big difference. These three prints are simple to make but incredibly useful for your daily workflow.
1. The Purge Material Chute (Poop Chute)
This handy accessory collects purge material and prime lines that would otherwise scatter across your workspace. Instead of cleaning up plastic spaghetti after every print, your purge chute catches it all in one neat spot.
- Keeps your printing area tidy
- Makes cleanup quick and easy
- Reduces waste mess

2. Filament Storage Clip
Running out of filament mid-print is frustrating. This simple clip holds your spare spool right where you need it, keeping filament organized and ready to swap when the current roll runs out.

Nothing ruins a great print like damaging it during removal. A dedicated scraper gives you the right tool for safely lifting prints off the build plate without scratches or broken pieces.
- Protects your print finish
- Extends build plate life
- Makes removal effortless
- Fits comfortably in hand
