The theme of the day was experimentation. True, most 3D printing is experimental at this point but today it was particularly true. Here’s a run down of what I printed.
- Finished a dual printed chess set. Hopefully next time I can do the whole batch in one go.
- 3 different toothpaste squeezers to find out which one was best. Report on that on Thursday.
- Two different whistles. Report on that on Tuesday.
- an iPhone stand re-sized for my android (least experimental of the day)
- a sanding block (…no wait, this was the least experimental thing) which stuck so hard it tore up my tape to remove… dang it.
- A test of a desk toy I’m working on, the results of which sent me back to the drawing board. (Pictured in the blockbot’s hand below)
- A modification to Lochemage’s blockbot that prints it’s own supports that need to be cut away and is all on one plate. Works great and scales well. I printed mine at 75% but I’m confident it’ll work at 50% even.
