Not a bad idea: These 3.2 mm high tiles can be glued, screwed or simply pressed into the floor and warn people with visual impairments of obstacles such as stairs or entrance doors. The tactile warning points are so high that you can feel them with a blindman´s stick, but they are also low enough to fit under most doors. If necessary, they have to be scaled down a little bit.

Everybody needs ice cubes at home, whether on a hot summer day or simply to refresh your mind with a cool drink. Flexible filament is the best way to make the cubes easy to remove. If you ran out of flexy material you can still print the tray with more solid filament. In this case you can loose the iced cubes by adding some lukewarm water.
