I decided to give it a shot building a steel pipe desk with 3D printed hardware. I bought the steel pipes and a 2′ x 4′ plywood top that I cut down to 20″ wide. The flange brackets are printed in PLA with 20% infill. I brought in the flanges from the Mcmaster-Carr catalog that’s built into Fusion 360 and then slightly modified them to fit the screws I would be using. Enjoy!
Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!

Looks like Fusion 360 is very simple to use and very intuitive tools. Thanks for sharing the video.
