Despite some initial problems, I’ve managed to make a few good prints.<\/p>\n

\"owl<\/a>

owl print<\/p><\/div>\n

I get a lot of the 3D files from http:\/\/thingiverse.com, by the way.\u00a0 Lots of stuff there,from trivial to utilitarian to just-for-fun.\u00a0 One really neat thing is 3D scans of fossils!\u00a0 It’s the closest someone like myself will ever get to handling fossils (and that’s a good thing, actually).\u00a0 One nice one is printed in several pieces that need to be assembled.\u00a0 So far I’ve printed two of the jaw pieces :<\/p>\n

\"part<\/a>

part of a dinosaur skull being printed<\/p><\/div>\n

Another fun thing to print out are mathematically-based creations :<\/p>\n

\"veronoi_D_tower<\/a>

veronoi_D_tower being printed<\/p><\/div>\n

It’s something of a process to get from an “image file” to the printed product.\u00a0 I’ll discuss that next time, but thought I’d show you some of my successes before showing problems and failures.\u00a0 But it’s all great fun!<\/p>\n
