A print-in-place fruit fly trap whose lid ring of small light slots lures flies into a dark, shielded chamber they can't find their way out of. Fill it to the marked line with apple cider vinegar and a drop of dish soap, set it by the fruit bowl, and rinse it out by hand when it's full.

A miniature moon colony desk organizer with domed compartments and a deeper well for pens, pencils, and brushes. Smaller craters hold paperclips, SD cards, coins, and other small bits, and it prints as one stable piece with no assembly.
