Image 1 of 11
Custom cufflinks
Order a variety of custom cufflinks in many different colors and materials from Shapeways — a typical gift with a creative touch.
Golf ball belt clip
A strange gift, but probably useful for the dad who loves golf. Use this 3D printed clip to hold two golf balls.
Quadcopter
3D Systems has a few options for you to 3D print, build, and pilot your own quadcopter — a DIY drone, if you will. Sounds like a pretty nifty gift.
Fatherhood knot pendant
This is a father’s knot Celtic pendant, 3D printed by Shapeways, which would make a classy gift for the dad who likes jewelry.
Bottle opener
Type “bottle opener” in Thingiverse’s search bar, and you’ll find plenty of options. Here’s a free bald eagle bottle opener design from the site.
Picture frames
Combine old tech and new by 3D printing a picture frame and then printing a real photograph for your father. This one is available through Shapeways.
Splash coasters
Super weird looking, but a cool idea. These coasters are for different types of glasses and barware. This one’s for a pint glass.
Keychain
Show Dad how much you appreciate him by 3D printing this #1 Dad keychain. Free download on Thingiverse.
Nooka watch band
If he’s not a smartwatch guy yet, this could be a good option. 3D Systems has a limited edition collection of these interchangeable 3D printed watch bands for the Zub40 line of Nooka.
Photography equipment
Is your father a photographer? That equipment is expensive, so 3D print lens caps, lens hoods, and other accessories instead. Here are some designs you can download from 3D Systems, but there are plenty of other options out there on the web.
Tie clip
How adorable is this tie clip? There’s a free download available on Instructables.
