3D Printing: Micro Scale

 

This print is something that we have attempted in the past, however it has been made possible to be completed using our P1S Printer.   In this instance the printer was able to produce this detailed print, which features a significant amount of technical difficulty, was printed in 26 minutes (which of course includes a six minute printer warm up time).    A number of options could be involving this print moving forward - the most obvious is that the student could design and create other farming or design related items to add to the scene.   There are a number of freely available designs and suitable other creations that could be used for this purpose.

The design here measures 70mm long (including the scoop) and is 30mm wide.   The design is 20mm high and the top of the scoop is slightly higher at 30mm.   This print uses 10g of PLA and had a price point of $0.25c.
