printable yoda figure

Between the years I had some time to use my 3D printer for my private amusement.



It is a meshup of a thingiverse yoda and a yoda figure from the google sketchup galery.
I removed the head of the sketchup yoda and replaced it with the thingiverse yoda using netfabb. Then I made it smooth with blender sculpt tools.
The figure was repaired with netfabb, scaled to a height of about 75 mm and then printed on my mendel in orange PLA direcly on tape without raft with my new 0.35mm nozzle.
The layer thickness is 0.17 mm so the details came out pretty good.

To check if it is printable I took the original yoda from thingiverse, scaled it down to the same size and printed it.


The files can be found on thingiverse.

And this is the conspirative yoda gang:

Have fun printing your own yoda figures.

starship enterprise

 

As another example from the StarTrek universe, I made a printable version of the Enterprise NCC1701-D.

The model is from the google sketchup galery and was converted using netfabb repair/hull-selection and blender boolean tools to merge them finally. This is always a little mess, but after some tries converting sktetchup models into watertight stl-files one creates some useful routines to get through quite quickly.

The result is a model divided into 3 parts to avoid support structures.

The middle part and the saucer section seemed to be hard to print with warping filament. So I switched to phosphorescent PLA, which gets printed almost warp free.

The final Enterprise was glued together with epoxy glue and looks good besides my romulan warbird.

As always - the models on: thingiverse

Feel free to cut it somewhere else to get it printable with a different filament.
...or try our shop to get some...
