Benchy in a bottle

prusaprinters

<p>I was looking for something interesting to test with my new clear prusament PETG, and I had a benchy on my table, so I thought about creating a benchy in a bottle. &nbsp;</p><p>I knew the clear PETG won't be ‘really clear’ so I created some windows to see the benchy inside.<br>It's multiple parts, and can be done on a single printer with a single extruder.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In order to print this properly, you need to <strong>FIRST</strong> print the ‘bottle-bottom’ file and a benchy.<br>Then, when you print the bottle, you need to add 2 pauses in the print -</p><p>The first pause I created just below where the window starts, and then I place in the ‘water’ that's inside the bottle.</p><p>After that I created another pause just before the ‘ceiling’ of the bottle is placed. This is for inserting the benchy. I created a ‘ceiling’ inside the bottle so I won't need any supports inside of the bottle (only supports required for the outside of the bottle - You can use ‘supports on build plate only’).</p><p>For your convenience, i'm adding a few sliced files - 2 for the prusa mini and 2 for the prusa mk3. One if for PLA and the other for PETG, and all of them have the ‘pauses’ set at the exact places I used.<br>(I didn't include a sliced version of the benchy, but make sure to print one before printing the bottle!)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For the benchy and the stand I used Prusament Mystic Brown, but you can obviously use whichever color you like.</p>
