The Office Shelf

Where the good stuff lives.

Every maker needs a trophy cabinet. This is mine.

These are prints I've made from designs by seriously talented 3D artists: paid-for models, printed and finished properly to show what my machines (and I) can do. Moving parts, fine detail, silk finishes, multi-part builds.

They're display only, not for sale. The designs belong to their creators. But if something here sparks an idea, let's build something yours.

The Tourbillon

The Tourbillon

A 105mm watchmaker’s flex, printed big enough to see. A tourbillon is the spinning cage that high-end watches use to cancel out gravity, an idea Breguet came up with in 1801 and it’s been showing off ever since. This one has the full works: a hairspring, a branching escape wheel, a 60-tooth gear and screw-capped pillars, all wound with its own oversized key. Turn the key, and it does the thing. A whole watch movement’s worth of drama with none of the price tag. It doesn’t tell the time. It’s too busy being impressive.Display only – not for sale
Wet Biscuit

FV24 Car Build

FV24 Car Build

The most realistic ground effect RC Formula 1 car... a work in progress, I'll keep updating! The FV24 is the next model in our FV series. It is NOT a new body to an FV01 design, nor is it an old chestnut. This is a completely new design which, thanks to its advanced features, generates even more traction, is even more stable to drive, even more reliable, and easier to use on a daily basis! And of course, it is still easy to print and gives a lot of fun to assemble and ride!Display only – not for saleDesign by Velocity Projects on Printables.com
