So, I’ve been playing with my 3D printer today. It’s almost Summer here in Australia so that means bbq’s and beach parties, which also means mosquitos.
So, I thought let’s smoke them out in style with a Pokémon Koffing mozzie coil holder. Need to sand it, prime and paint. Then it will be ready to go.
I’ve been wanting a 3D printer I feel like it got so popular for a time and now I don’t hear much about it. This is a really cool 3D print though so resourceful and so creative!
Oh really. I have 3D print videos all over my YouTube feed still. I actually want to buy a new multi print 3D printer so I can easily print with more than one color. The current one I have I need to swap out the color manually, it’s doable but also annoying. The reason I got it though was to print big, it has a huge print size. So, looking at something smaller that can multi print next. I have a resin 3D printer too, for all my figurines.
I think I’ve stopped seeing because I haven’t searched for it in a while, my brother had one and was making really cool things with it but he didn’t really have a passion for it so he stopped making things. That was a couple years ago though when I remember it being super popular at least in my feed. Hope I get to see more of your 3D creations soon
Amazing job @BellethehowtoGuru! I have been toying with doing some Pokémon inspired shadow boxes for the Christmas Market that I thought that would make great gifts and be very popular. This kind of seals the deal for me. Also this has reinvigorated my desire to want/need a 3D printer. LOL! I appreciate you giving me another “reason” to use on my husband for when it “just shows up” on the front doorstep.
Hahahaha, glad I could help. Totally let me know when you get one and what you get. I think 3D printers are so fun.
I do need to say please be careful selling licensed things, I have seen people get in serious trouble for it in the past. Would hate for anything like that to happen to anyone in our community.
Completely agree. I am 100% cautious about selling licensed items because I don’t need no fight with a mouse or a pocket monster. LOL! I tend to stick to silhouettes of licensed items without any distinguishing characteristics. That can be challenging to find but I have found a few options that lend to the idea without directly copying it.
I will definitely keep you updated with the 3D printer I end up on. Who do you like from the 3D world from a machine side?
That is brilliantly Aussie and absolutely genius! A Koffing mozzie coil holder? Talk about smoking out the bugs with style and a wink to nostalgia. Can’t wait to see it once it’s sanded, primed, and painted—please share pics when it’s done! Your 3D printer’s getting a proper summer workout.
Any of the big brands are all pretty good now. 3D printers have come along way in the last 5 years. Bambu, Creality, Phozen, Anycubic, prusa are all great brands. But my top pick would be Bambu, the machines are so easy to use, customer support is great. Great pick for a beginner.
I have a Phrozen Resin 3Dprinter and a Anycubic Kobra 2 Max. Got it for the really large print area so I can make cosplays. I’m getting a Bambu H2D Pro because it has dual nozzle
