About Domechy

Started by one maker, now built by its community.

I started Domechy as a place to keep my own notes and articles about 3D printing, mechanical design and the things I learned from my projects.

Since then, members have started sharing their own projects, quick updates from the workbench, 3D models and even full articles, so a growing part of what you find here now comes from them rather than from me.

Who builds Domechy

More of Domechy now comes from its members.

Domechy grows a little every time a member shares something, which is why it no longer depends on what one person knows.

Makers, students, engineers, hobbyists and designers solve useful problems every day, but most of that knowledge used to end up scattered across social media posts, private chats and group threads, or simply stayed in someone’s head.

On Domechy it is starting to collect in one place. Members document their builds and keep adding updates, share quick results and questions, upload models for others to print, and some have written full articles in their own words.

I still write, maintain the platform and run the challenges, but my main job now is to make it easier for everyone else to contribute and to make sure good work gets noticed.

What members share

Every kind of contribution counts.

You do not need to be an expert to take part. If you made something, learned something or found a better way to do something, it is probably useful to somebody else.

01

Projects

Members show what they are building and keep adding updates as the project develops, including the problems they ran into along the way.

02

Simple posts

Quick ideas, print results, questions and experiments shared straight from the workbench.

03

3D Models

Members upload their own models so others can download, print and build on them.

04

Articles

Guides, experiences, reviews and technical explanations written by members in their own words, alongside Domechy’s own articles.

Schools, colleges and universities

Learning institutions want to build this with us.

A growing number of schools, technical colleges and universities in Malaysia have reached out because they want to work with Domechy. They share the same goal, which is to help students learn by building real things and to give that work a place where other people can find it.

I am grateful to every teacher, lecturer and student who has contacted us. We are still working out the best ways to do this together, and these are the ideas we are exploring.

Student portfolios

Projects documented step by step become a record students can show to lecturers, employers and other makers.

Practical guides

Teachers and lecturers can share what they teach in the workshop with learners beyond their own classroom.

Real briefs

Challenges give students a clear problem, a deadline and a reason to build, document and share.

If you represent a school, technical college or university and would like to get involved, email hello@domechy.com.

The idea is simple

When one of us learns something, the rest of us should be able to find it.

A useful answer should not disappear inside a comment thread a week later, and a good project deserves to be found again long after it was posted. When knowledge, projects and models are kept in one place, Domechy becomes more useful every time somebody contributes.

Where this is going

A home for people who like to build things.

Domechy started in Malaysia and Malaysia is still its core community, but it is now open to makers anywhere. When someone wants to learn about 3D printing, find a useful model, see what other makers are building or share their own work, I want Domechy to be one of the first places they think of.

The aim is a genuinely useful community, filled with real projects, practical knowledge and people who are willing to help each other improve, and that only works if Domechy belongs to the people who build it.

Join in

If you build things, you are invited.

Explore what other members are sharing, or create an account and add something of your own. Even one useful post can help somebody.

Thank you to every member, teacher, lecturer and student who has shared something here or reached out to help.
