I’ve been printing a lot of things witht he 3D printer lately. I discovered a set of mushroom shelves that I could print for the kids. These are wall shelves of varying shapes and sizes. I printed one today so that I could see how it looked. It came out really nice and Eva is super excited about them and even has some ideas on what she’d like to do with many of them. The great thing about the 3D printer is that we just need the filament and the time, it has a very low cost to make these. She plans to paint the underside ribs of the mushrooms with glow in the dark paint so that her room has a cool night look.
I did some work today on the swords that I’ve printed. they both needed to be assembled so I got them all glued together. Then after they dried I sprayed them with the fill primer that I purchased earlier this week. I’m going to give it a couple of coats this weekend but I still need something else to fill the gaps that I am seeing. Even though the prints were pretty precise they were not precise enough and there are gaps.
I tried printing another thing for Eva. While it should have been fairly easy to print it was not. I worked on the options for printing and finally got a viable print this evening. Eva will be painting that sometime soon as well.
