Making EDC more accessible: A year of designing free, 3D-printable gear

Just wanted to share a few projects I’ve been working on over the last couple years. I love the EDC community, but it’s no secret that this hobby can get insanely expensive.

I’m a designer by trade, so I decided to see how much of my daily carry I could actually "DIY." The goal was to make stuff that actually works and keep it all available for download so anyone with a printer can grab them for free.

There’s something really satisfying about being able to print and assemble a tool yourself in a specific color to match your setup. Goes without saying that stuff like the screwdriver and the box cutter should be used on light applications only due to material limitations, like loosing a screw on a toy to add batteries or opening amazon boxes.

I go by "@DownloadedGoods" in all major 3d printing platforms. Happy printing!
