Latest big print

Post by Spotopolis » Sun May 31, 2015 10:05 pm

Terminator exoskull from Thingiverse, PLA, around 8 inches tall. Took about 8 hours to print.

The lights in the eyes are on a motion sensor so they come on when someone enters the room.

Not the kind of nightlight I'd prefer, but great work nonetheless! :D

I know what my next project is going to be! How much support did it require?

It took VERY little support - just a few columns under the jaw and a few in the temple insets. Overall it was a very easy print.

Oh yeah, this was ABS, not PLA. Not sure that it matters, but I had it confused with a different print.

sweet, amazed you were able to print something that big without it splitting on you. I tried printing a large skull once and it split and warped a lot! I am not good at finishing techniques, this would probably be a good time to start practicing!
