Is there a “standard” place to put 3D Models of useful “stuff” that I’ve developed to use around my Shapeoko CNC machine in case it would be useful to somebody else as well?

Well, one can upload models here — the Gallery seems a reasonably good fit:
This is the community Gallery for showing off projects or work in progress. Any work done on a Carbide 3D machine is welcome. Projects with source files and notes on feeds, speeds, tooling and workholding, doubly so.
or, if it’s a 3D printed thing, there’s a thread for that:
With a significant number of makers out there owning a Shapeoko, Nomad and a 3D printer, we wanted to set up a place where users could get spare parts if in a bind as well as to be able to share concepts we’ve been playing with which would be suited to 3D printing.
We have about 50 models, from Active Project Tray to Z Clamps.
We have more ideas and files in the works, but we thought this would be a good starting point.
Generally speaking, these models should be printable on most 3D printers.…

Yeah, should have been more specific – I was referring to FDM-printed models. It would make sense to add them to the 3D Print Library but that’s not a community forum.

Just add them in a post in that thread?
's what I did:
Designed and printed a holder for T-handle hex wrenches:

which worked well when I printed it:
[20250726_2051531]
EDIT: Improved STL which replaces the hexes w/ 12 pointed stars, so it should work for any sort of hex key:
hexkeystand.stl (118.3 KB)
Size should match the other 3D print library files.

So, yeah. Maybe I should have scrolled down past that first announcement post.
Thanks!
