I gave each kiddo a choice of 3-D print. Collin choose a cheetah – that worked out in a couple of tries.
Maddy wanted a horse – First try – print vertical – as downloaded.
Looks like the slicer missed support for one of the front legs. But, we also had a power hit in the middle of the print. Looks like a Star Trek transporter failure.
Next I tried standing. The slicer would not generate tree support for the head, so I went with traditional support.
Almost worked, but the tail and one leg got kicked over.
Next try – inverted.
This one looks like it might work. Actually lost power during the print, but was able to resume. My fault – I was naughty and the ground fault tripped. If the skinny legs print successfully, we are home and dry.
And . . . Success! The “water line” could be sanded away, otherwise, looking pretty good.
