MAIN PURPOSE: Turn a flat wireless charger into a stand

Drop a round wireless charging pad into the slot at the back and its face lines up with the 56 mm window: lean your phone against the front and it charges standing up, where you can still read the screen, instead of lying flat. The cable leaves through the back and the front lip stops the phone sliding.

Stepover

MAIN PURPOSE: Cover a cable crossing the floor

A floor cable cover: lay it over a lead that has to cross a hallway or the gap from desk to wall, and the 12 x 9 mm channel underneath hides it while the shallow ramps stop feet, chair wheels and vacuum heads catching. Print as many 200 mm lengths as the run needs and butt them end to end.

Loop Lock

MAIN PURPOSE: Shorten a cable that is too long

Shorten a charger or headphone cable that is too long without coiling it: fold a loop of the excess and press both strands into the two side slots, which run in opposite directions so the cable takes an S-turn and holds. No unplugging, no ties, and sliding it along sets the length.

Aqueduct Rail

MAIN PURPOSE: Carry pens on top and route cables through arches

A desk rail built like a Roman aqueduct. Pens and pencils ride in the channel on top, while three arches run right through the piers so charging cables pass underneath and stay put, and a phone charger or power brick hides inside the hollow piers between the arches.

Night Cell

MAIN PURPOSE: Put the phone to bed charging out of sight

A tall quiet cell where the phone sleeps. Drop it in at bedtime: it stands on two inner ledges with the charging plug hanging free below, the cable leaves by a notch at the back, and the arcaded front shows nothing of the screen, so the phone charges out of sight and out of reach.

Lochling

MAIN PURPOSE: Guide desk cables through a lake monster's humps

A loch monster that keeps your cables in line. Its head and neck rise from a 9 mm waterline at one end, three humps arch along the desk and a tail flicks up at the other; thread charging cables through the humps and they stay put. Folklore, cable management and a smile in one 222 mm piece.

Weighted cable-end anchor

MAIN PURPOSE: Stop charging cables sliding off the desk

Snap the charging cables into the three keyhole slots and fill the block with coins: when you unplug the phone, the cable ends stay on the desk instead of sliding off the back and down behind it.

RJ45 broken-latch repair clip

MAIN PURPOSE: Fix a network cable with a snapped latch

Slide the clip sideways over the body of a network plug whose latch has snapped off: its own springy tongue catches in the socket again, so the cable stays plugged in without crimping a new connector.

Standing desk cable spine links

MAIN PURPOSE: Guide cables up a standing desk

Thread a string of links on two 4 mm cords, snap the cables into the C rings and fix the ends to the desk frame and the floor: the spine guides the cables as the desk goes up and down and stops them snagging. Print ten or more.

Monitor arm cable clip

MAIN PURPOSE: Route cables along a monitor arm
