3D Pig

thingiverse

To create a small pink 3D pig, I utilized Google Sketchup's feet and inches template. I formed a main circle, elevated it, and replicated this process for the eyes, nose, and ears. To scale down the pig, I ensured the primary circle measured approximately three inches. Upon completion, I selected the entire model, navigated to 'Tools', and chose 'Export' in DXL or STL formats. For accurate measurements, I opted for millimeters and converted it into a polyface mesh. The file was saved on my H drive and printed via the MakerBot. A simple preheat of the 3D printer and initiation of the printing process concluded the task.
