Printables won. I will upload my files and link them here. ~~I shouldn't create another post since nobody likes spam.~~ (sigh... What am I doing with my life?)

I'll leave the original body here. Thanks for your help. /-- Hello.

I have a handfull of 3D parts designed when I was in high school. These range from a custom computer anchor K-Lock (Shown here) to a plant monitor.

Unfortunetly, I graduated and don't have a 3D printer anymore, as I use and test on my old school's printer.

Fortunetly, I still have all of my work and I want to share it in a way that anyone can use, under a CC-BY-SA license.

What is a good way to share my work? Github, Drive, Gitlab, here?

I still like 3D printing, so I plan on getting one soon (albeit, it will take years..).

Thanks!

I'm seconding Printables - you can upload both stl and step files there, they have a nice UI that's easy to navigate.

As a side note, have your considered starting a Patreon or something with your 3D models? If you make some good models (and you seem to know what you're doing), it might help towards your goal of getting 3D printer sooner. Though it's probably hard without a printer to test it on, I guess.

No, I have thought about that. I though patreon was for more "Famous" people that have YT, Twitch, Etc..

I have some design knowledge from school (Computer Aided Manufactring, Design Princibles, and Robotics) with reading 3D printing practices and limatations. (Fabrication too...). But I'm not a very smart person.

While I can't test them now, most of my parts were tested under FEM and in the read world (To check accuracy).

I am considering Printables (It's obvious why) and hopefully I don't end up with just spools.

Thanks.
