📋 Attribution Rules

When You Remix

If you build on someone else's design:

  1. Credit the original creator in your description
  2. Link to the original model
  3. Respect the original license (some don't allow remixes)
  4. Note what you changed — be clear about your contributions

When You Print

  • You don't need to credit for personal prints
  • If you sell prints, check the model's license first
  • Some licenses prohibit commercial use (NC = Non-Commercial)

🛡️ Safety First

Design Responsibly

  • Include safety warnings for functional parts
  • Specify material requirements (e.g., PETG for load-bearing parts)
  • Note infill recommendations and print settings
  • Test your designs before sharing

Don't Share Dangerous Designs

Even if legal in your area, don't upload:

  • Firearm components (even novelty ones)
  • Lock-picking tools
  • Items that could be used as weapons
  • Anything that could endanger others
