Bundling DuPont connectors: 3D Printing Everyday for 365 Days 282/365 #stem #3dprinting #3dprint #ideas – YouTube

Nice idea: [Wayback/Archive] 3D Printing Everyday for 365 Days 282/365 #stem #3dprinting #3dprint #ideas – YouTube
It mentions DuPont wire connectors which is colloquial for a common form of jump wires: the ones that can connect to breadboards, or male or female pin headers. Basically a so called “DuPont wire” is an electric wire with a pin header (either male or female) on each end leading to 3 kinds (not counting ones having multiple connectors on each wire) as male – female is the same as male – female:
- female – female
- female – male
- male – male
Being able to group the connector end of multiple jump wires in one enclosing connector for quick opening and closing is a great idea.
Hopefully the 3D printing files will be released somewhere.
One of the comments is also inspiration for a future 3D printing project:

WireGuard on OpenWRT based GL.iNET: some notes on the `wireguard_watchdog` script
Posted by jpluimers on 2026/01/15
On OpenWRT GL.iNET based devices, the WireGuard client does not restart upon reboot, even if it was started before rebooting.
Hopefully the /usr/bin/wireguard_watchdog script will help with this as others indicates it should.
My first try was no succes, but since it is supposed to run from cron it does no output. The script on GL-SFT1200 firmware version 3.215, script /usr/bin/wireguard_watchdog is different from the one in the OpenWRT repository, so it needs some investigation.
Some links for checking this out:
