DESK COOLING
DIY desk air cooler with a USB fan and frozen water
A small fan, a frozen pack and a printed body can make a close personal breeze colder without pretending to cool the whole room.
Yuki Mini
A compact personal cooler for desks and small rooms: printed PLA parts, a quiet USB fan and a frozen water pack or bottle. It gives a close, steady stream of cooler, drier air without a compressor or refrigerant loop.
Ice-pack coolingYuki cools air by moving it around a frozen ice pack or bottle — simple, low-energy and easy to understand.
Printed + USBPrinted PLA parts, a quiet USB fan and ice from the freezer: no compressor, no refrigerant loop.
Yuki lineageYears and hundreds of prototypes shaped the airflow, shell and print workflow so the object feels simple when it is finished.

How to slice Yuki Mini
Yuki Mini uses printed parts, a fan and a frozen water pack. The slicing work matters because airflow, overhangs and the ice-pack geometry need different priorities.

Roy
A quiet, USB-powered air purifier that just does its job. Cleaner room air from a printed object that actually looks like it belongs on the shelf — no humming appliance, no exposed electronics.
Water filters
Jem
A polypropylene tap water filter for activated carbon. The flower-like top opens for filling, the body attaches to standard taps, and the bottom grid holds carbon while water passes through. Joined G-code keeps the water path cleaner by reducing micro-stringing.
