The parametric object library
Seventy-two objects for the parts of a house and a workshop that never come in standard sizes. Every one is generated from parameters, so you fit it to the drawer, the shelf, the tube or the tool you actually have.
How it works
- 1
Find it by room
The catalogue is organised by where the object lives — storage, kitchen, workshop, desk, garden, bath, garage, craft, cable and tech, and home — with search across the lot.
- 2
Open the preset
Every entry is a set of starting numbers for one of eight underlying shapes, so a spice rack and a drill bit gauge are the same rack with different holes.
- 3
Fit it to your thing
Change the dimensions until the bin fits your drawer or the ring adapts your vacuum hose to your sander. Nothing is baked in.
- 4
Export it watertight
Each export goes through the same boundary, manifold and wall thickness check as the rest of the studio.
Ten categories
The split is by where an object ends up rather than by what shape it is, because that is how people look for these things.
- Storage
- Bins, dividers and sorters, including drawer dividers and stacking totes.
- Kitchen
- Racks, crocks and measures — spice jar racks, utensil crocks, lid racks.
- Workshop
- Tool stands and gauges — drill bit gauges, bolt sizers, shop-vac adapters.
- Desk
- Stands, cups and trays, including phone and tablet stands.
- Garden
- Pots, hangers and tool racks, including propagation cups.
- Bath
- Holders, hooks and dishes.
- Garage
- Rails, hooks and adapters, including socket rails and key rails.
- Craft
- Brush stands, bead trays and sorters.
- Cable & tech
- Cable combs, filament clips, USB stick racks and docks.
- Home
- Hooks, caddies, coaster holders and door wedges.
Eight shapes underneath
Seventy-two separate models would be seventy-two things to maintain and seventy-two ways for geometry to break. Instead each entry drives one of eight parametric shapes, which is why every object in the library adjusts as thoroughly as every other one.
- Bin
- A walled container with compartments, a scoop front, a rim, magnet pockets and a label tab.
- Hook
- A back plate and an arm, with reach, tip, gusset and a screw, keyhole or adhesive mount.
- Stand
- An angled panel with a lip — monitor risers, phone stands, door wedges.
- Slot rack
- Rows of round or slotted holes, optionally tilted, either through the body or into a floor.
- Clip
- A C-shaped grip sized to what it holds, with a plate or screw back.
- Tube holder
- A tapered or faceted vessel with dividers, drainage and a foot.
- Adapter ring
- Two diameters joined, fitting inside or over, with a flange and grip ribs.
- Gauge plate
- A plate of graded openings — round, square or slot — with a hang hole.
Why parametric matters here more than anywhere
The usual way to get an organiser is to download someone else's STL and discover that their drawer is 8 mm shallower than yours. There is nothing to do about it: the file is a finished mesh, and editing a mesh back into a different size is harder than modelling it again.
Every object here keeps its parameters, so the drawer depth is a number rather than a fact. That is also why the print check is part of the export rather than an afterthought — geometry that regenerates on every change needs to be verified on every change.
Questions
How is this different from the 3D objects on the Pro plan?
The Pro objects are fifteen types you configure from scratch — a box, a vase, a lithophane. The library is a catalogue of seventy-two ready-made things with sensible starting numbers for a specific job, built on eight shared shapes. Ultra includes everything in Pro.
Are the objects really fully adjustable?
Yes. A catalogue entry is a set of parameter values, not a frozen mesh, so every dimension the underlying shape exposes is yours to change.
What does "print-checked" mean?
Before an object can be exported it is audited for edges that border a hole in the surface, for edges shared by more than two faces, and for walls too thin to print. Those are the defects that make a slicer silently repair a model or produce one that fails partway up.
Can I sell what I print from the library?
Selling printed items is covered from the Pro plan upward, and Ultra sits above Pro. Redistributing the digital files themselves is not permitted on any plan.
