Ontopic The 3D printing thread

[kiwi]

Niiice. I want one for making small precise stuff that my FDM printer won't do. Apparently they're a pain in the ass with curing and washing and crap but it's worth the outcome.

Get that planet blaster printed after?

Since I haven’t yet yes I’ll definitely have him print it after he has it set up.

Personally, I was thinking of taking the longer of these, giving it a bit of a curve as if it were standing on its balls (kind of an animate penis character) and then tiling them all over the flat surfaces of mine. Tiles about 1/8" x 1/8" with 1/32" border around the tiles.

@fly what do you have for taps anyway? Intertap or someone else? Knowing that info (and taps being 3" apart) is all I need.

That one's cool too. Looks like the wooden taps I made, but with a lollipop on top!

BTW, safe to assume these could be ready in like 7-10 days? How long does it take to print one?

Day per, max. Likely closer to 12 hours?

Let me know what size you want the heads to be and I'll revisit the ones I did.

I'm thinking 2" at it's widest point should be good. Especially if the handle tapers near the bottom. That way people can still easily stick their grubby mitts in there to pour beer.

Ok. Any thoughts on that interchangeable head idea?
Also, get your dadgum wife to send me a vector file of the logo.

No logos needed! Gonna put custom stickers on each one.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

I was gonna put the Dick Creek tree in the bottom portion of the tap and have the top head portion be for the sticker.

Here
The penis would be the Dick Creek tree logo, the smiley face would be your sticker.

@Mr. Asa is black the only PETG you've got?

Pondering an on-the-fly filament change.

Right now, yeah. Can order some if needed.

oh! Could you maybe just do the =D logo on the 'shaft'?

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

That can also be done, sure. Do you have a vector version of it? Or a DXF?

I can use a jpg or png or whatever that file type is for it, but it is a pain in the ass.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

@fly @APRIL

I'm probably gonna start printing these tonight. Do you have the logo available as a vector file, DXF, or DWG file?

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

I think PSD would work as well

 

[gee]

@Mr. Asa just traced the logo in inkscape, give this a try.

[Mr. Argumentor]

Yeah, that looks like it'll do her.

Walk me through the steps of what you did? That's my biggest irritation in Solidworks, getting a logo or such imported

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

DXF makes it so easy.
