You know the winter season is officially upon us when the Printables are taken over by our favorite annual contest: The traditional Winter Holidays Decorations! As in previous years, the contest theme is intentionally broad. While many entries will naturally focus on Christmas, designs inspired by other winter holidays — such as Hanukkah, Yule, or New Year’s — are just as welcome. Anything that fits the season or adds a bit of winter flair is a fair game. And this year, the prizes are bigger than ever! For the first time in the contest’s history, the grand prize winner will take home a new 🎄 Prusa CORE One+ !🎄 Runners-up will also receive a generous amount of Prusameters to spend on their favorite materials or other rewards.🧡 📸⭐ Hero model of this contest: Geometric Origami Inspired Christmas Tree

Hercules contest is back on Printables! And this time, it’s a high-stakes flash contest with prizes that go well beyond the usual lineup. The challenge focuses on the smallest parts of your DJ gear that can make the biggest difference: Design Your Own Encoder Knob! No matter if you’re scratching, mixing or browsing tracks — encoder knobs are the quiet heroes of every controller. So let’s give them a little spotlight! We’re challenging you to create your own custom encoder or fader knob: something that adds style, comfort, precision or just bit of personality to your DJ setup. Cool geometry, better grip, fun shapes, better functionality — you can design anything, as long as it fits. No Controller? No Problem! Just like the last time: you don’t need to own a Hercules controller to join in. Hercules has provided all the files you need to design a knob that fits perfectly: just click here! The Challenge Design a knob that: works with a standard DJ encoder or fader, fits the provided Hercules specifications, is stylish, ergonomic, functional — or all three, stands out with originality. Your design can be tailored specifically for the DJControl Inpulse 200 series, or you can go the universal.
