    Hey everyone

    First post in here I believe. I have a 2025 Tundra Limited TRD Offroad 4x4 with some kings suspension added onto it, KMC IMS wheels and Toyo's on 35's.

    I have a 3D printer that I am getting into printing some things. There quite a few things that are models that I would be able to print for some people. Designs that are not mine, but they are made public for people to use and print them.

    That being said, I am trying to think of things that I would be able to make in a CAD program (And Learn a CAD program), to create custom brackets and any carbon fiber parts that you guys could think of. I do have hardened stainless steel, with a heated bed and inclosed chamber, so I would be able to print using Continuous Carbon Fiber, Nylon Fiber, TPU, ABs, ABS Glass Fiber, ABS Carbon Fiber, PLA, So many to name. I have quite a few colors in stock now from glow in the dark to color changing/shifting filaments.

    Can you guys think of things that you'd like printed?

    I have seen custom switch pro pods. I can make some solid carbon fiber light brackets. If Someone has CAD that would like to try to make something and have me try to print it I am totally willing to try!.

    Im located in SoCal in Garden Grove. Im trying to make this 3D Printer worth its purchase price and I'm 50/50 on returning it. What do you guys think?

    I had a similar thread here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/3d-printing-3rd-gen-parts-ideas.152962/
    cup holder separators have been my favorite addition so far. I also scanned the trim to the left of the steering wheel to make a flush mount for my auxbeam switch. Next up I’m gonna make some rear facing S2 mounts for some ambers I have laying around. If you’re new to CAD, fusion 360 is free, solid works offers a “creator” license that I think is like $60-80 a year, and then onshape is a web-based solution. I prefer solidworks bc that’s what I’ve used in school and now at work, but Fusion is a great alternative. Sounds like you got a Bambu (could be wrong) - I have an X1C and love it. NylonX from matterhackers is super impressive. I’ve made headlight mounts for dirt bikes using that filament and they don’t budge hitting whoops at 60+.

    That is very cool! You could do all kinds of things. Gear selector handles, cup holder organizers, new knobs for various controls etc.

    One of the most useful things I've printed for mine was a simple little ring that drops into the cupholder and reduces the size to fit a redbull can

    That's a very cool idea!
