I was bored last night and had some Rivian Yellow filament leftover from a previous project, so I decided to print a desktop pen holder (actually a copy of a Brembo caliper). If you have any suggestions on the logo / positioning, let me know. The bolts & nipples are threaded, the spanner is used to bolt in the nipples and brake fluid balance tube (gently).

Wow, that is impressive. I'd love to print one of my own if you feel like sharing the STL at some point!

I wouldn't mind printing one myself if you don't mind sharing the STL and everything else I'll need.

Rivian--they're _quick_ to respond when someone who isn't them puts their logo on stuff. Like really quick.
This would be for people selling products with the Rivian logo, not putting public domain designs out with the logo. If you look at the common 3d printing sites, you'll see several things with the logo on them. They've been out for years.

This is incorrect.
I got a C&D and was VERY specifically told not to share 3d print files anywhere. They even called out the threads where people asked for them and suggested that I responded to them. (Spoiler alert: They're on these forums. Maybe not personally and live, but I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even just have Google keyword alerts monitoring).

My observation isn't different from yours: there's tons of Rivian IP out there, so what gives? My best guess is 1- it's becoming more and more pervasive and Rivian isn't growing their Attorney team enough to keep up 2- if you host this but don't post about it, where are they sending the C&D. I don't think Makerworld is going to do much, if anything and 3- roll of the dice. Did they *find* YOUR post about the 3d print or are you lost in the ether.

Looks awesome! I would move the logo above the Rivian lettering, however, in that triangular area.
