3D Printed Ideas: Rainbow Filament - Market Day 2025

 

Every two years at Auroa School we hold a school market day where students sell products that are made using some of the technology that is available to students of Auroa Primary School, with our Market Day focussing on innovation and creativity.

We have posted about this in the past on this blog extensively, you can search the blog by using the box on the right hand side.

We also have videos on this event created by the wonderful staff member whose videos are featured on his Sonic Vision Studios Youtube page.

We have again started experimenting with different kinds of filament for designs.  In the past we have experimented with having students (supervised by our seniors) using spray painting in special circumstances.  The latest batch of prints that we are experimenting with are 'rainbow' tinted and shaded PLA.   You can see an example of the dragon shown in the top photograph, which was the basis for our 'Dragon' selling or the name plate/badge shown below, which has previously been featured on this blog.
