I've made a few things. One, Mickey shaped cabinet hardware I put up for free because I didn't want to deal with Disney. Though I might put the raw print up on Etsy or something just because.
Another is a frame to turn a Disney name tag into an ornament. I'm selling the completed product rather than releasing the design because I wanted to really offer it to people who didn't have 3d printers and wanted to ensure that it met my standards. And I didn't want competition. That said, it takes quite a lot of time to print, prep, sand, and paint. I spend a couple hours in finishing each and sell it at a price that... Totally doesn't make it worth it.
