A pool owner found the robot cleaner's drive so worn that the propeller kept slipping, and responded by designing a replacement part in FreeCAD and 3D printing it. The new orange drive spins constantly and engages the propeller through a helical dog clutch, so the propeller only turns when the two parts lock together. The post shows the finished fix, drawing attention for its neat engineering approach to repair rather than replacement.

A course provider is offering a first educational leave (Bildungsurlaub) workshop in Hamburg on 11 November, titled "From Idea to Product - With Design Thinking and 3D Printing to Implementation". A few places are still open, and the announcement asks for help spreading the word. The course combines creative problem-solving methods with hands-on 3D printing to take participants from concept to finished product.
