3D Printing Live Stream – Star Wars Chessboard Project – Episode 5 – Four Corners (FAILED)

I’m currently in the process of a big 3D Printing project for a special gift. It’s a bit of a mammoth undertaking, but when complete, should be really lovely. More about the project later!

I’m cleaning my 3d printer bed with Prosan Alcohol Spray which is a 100% Isopropanol / Isopropyl Spray which is working out brilliantly!

In the meantime, experience the joy of 10 hours of  Failure of 4.5 hours 3D Printing!

Sony Xperia XZ1 – 3D Scanning Tests

I’ve been trying out the Sony Xperia XZ1. Today I had a go at it’s 3d scanning feature. It’s pretty slick and actually works. You really need good lighting and plenty of space.

I’ll use this page to embed scans, as I make them.
