I finished printing all the parts of The Sword of Oemns today and began a print for Eva. The kids went back to school today and we were back at Krav for classes, too. During the day I had the printer printing several things or rather one thing multiple times because I needed to size it properly. This is a Totem of Undying that is from Minecraft. Eva wanted one for her cosplay. The original file was incredibly small and I had it printing with a bunch of other things but the fans blew it away into a spaghetti monster. Then I scaled it up but not enough. I ended up printing it twice at that size and then scaled it up even further to the correct size for Eva. This is the correct size printing and there are several supports to help with the printing.

My first print of 2024 was the Thundercats emblem to add to The Sword of Omens. However, this print above was the second print. The first one did not have proper supports to keep it in place on the hotbed of the printer. The fans blew it away and then the extruder continued to pump out filament and made a spaghetti monster. sort of fitting for the start of the year. Don’t forget to use support. Not just for 3D printing.
