Bag clip. This is a general purpose bag clip for lollipops, chips, popcorn or anything else you can think of to use it for! A great way to keep your snacks fresh after opening the package. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:330151

Toothpaste dispenser/clip. This is a cool little tool that squeezes all the toothpaste out of the tube to get every last drop out! No more badly misshapen toothpaste tubes, and you might even save money later! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:867811

Practical key rings. You can 3D print many different types of keychains that can help you hack your life. I printed two examples, one being a stick cover and the other being a Lightning AUX port adapter holder.

Carabiner. Carabiners are very convenient ways to lift objects, carry them or simply increase the capacity of your key ring. Printing one out is a nice and simple trick that can provide a very handy tool without buying an expensive one! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1819242

Life tip 5: 2:52
Universal bottle opener. This is a very practical tool that can help you open cans, glass (beer) bottles and twist glass bottles. There are different sizes of lids. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1097099

Life tip 6: 3:27
Fake shopping cart coin. This is a cool little trick to easily use and return carts without fiddling with your wallet. This model is specially designed for ALDI carts in Australia (2 dollar coin).https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1802619

Life tip 7: 3:52
Custom monitor stand. This is a cool little custom stand that I designed myself. This is the perfect DIY implementation to demonstrate that you can model designs to make your environment more practical. I'm not sure what I'll use it for, but it will definitely free up desk space for sticks or other small items I might want to see.

Life tip 8: 4:28
Phone holder/iPhone holder. This is a great phone holder compatible with almost all Apple and Samsung phones. The Octopus arm design really makes it stand out, and it looks cool too! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:607518

Life tip 9: 4:55
Cable management / Cable holder / USB anti-stress / Headphone clip. One awesome thing about this print is the cable management you can achieve. In this video I make corner cable management brackets, as well as headphone clips for your shirt. This shirt clip keeps your headphones from dangling and getting caught on things! Also protect your cables from fraying by printing USB anti-stress products!

Life tip 10: 6:02
Earphone holder. Props to the designer, this is an awesome design to help you preserve your headphones! Also produces a really satisfying sound when you close it 🙂 It's really a handy and interesting tip to prevent your headphones from getting tangled. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:36321
