3D Printing

This week I am going to make a 3D printed jewelry.

-------------

I am fascinated by Ugo Cacciatori's design. His design is considered as

a combination of dark and elegance.

After two days of watching youtube videos and trying myself, I decide to

start with something simple.

The expection of making a complex geometry for my fisrt attemp is not realistic.

I played with Helix function and created a spiral structure on a sphere.

After the struggle with solidworks for a while, I have my pendant modelled.

I design the diameter of the spiral to be around 5mm, so it won't collapse when

printing.

I put on support system choosing "everywhere", and after one hour my pendant is printed.

The surface of the object is rough, it does not have a smooth surface.

It might has to do with the setting of machine, I choosed a medium resolution.

I file off the roughness on the surface and put a rope on the pendant.

I have a collection of animals on my desk. So I want to scan them.

I try Sense scanner first, but my beaver is too small, the software always

gives me lost tracking message. Then I move on to something bigger.

The candy tree.
