Creepy Eyes

prusaprinters

<p>My son wanted to be a spider for Halloween. So I 3d printed some LED lit eyes. I modeled them in Fusion 360 and printed them using my dual extruder MakerGear M2. The eye can be lit with a 3mm LED and a watch battery, no other electronics needed. I liked them so much I made a creepier version for myself. The base can be sewn to fabric using the recesses in the base. The base was dual extruded 3d printed with black ABS and HIPS as a support material which was later dissolved away. I uploaded the models to Thingiverse.</p> <p>CR1620 watch battery and 5mm LED needed for lighting</p> <p>Eye models and Iris can be dual extruded or printed separately and attached later.</p> <p>Base should work with breakaway support as well but may require some sanding as its a tight fit.</p> <p>Videos on Printing setup and assembly.</p> <p>Part 1 on Printing dual extruder with 2 color print and HIPS dissolvable supports: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gk2_TIXIUes">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gk2_TIXIUes</a></p> <p>Part 2 on Assembly and finished product: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0quhL1RP7k">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0quhL1RP7k</a></p> <p>Part 3 finishing with XTC-3d and paint <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpVQmcQ8rq8&amp;t=18s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpVQmcQ8rq8&amp;t=18s</a></p> <p>Smooth On XTC-3d coating for smoothing 3d prints http://amzn.to/2fncO0m</p> <p>Duplicolor Scratch Fix All-In-One- Bright Red http://amzn.to/2eEcysa</p> <p>Duplicolor Scratch Fix All-In-One- Black http://amzn.to/2eMEnlz</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>MakerGear</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>M2</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>Doesn't Matter</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div> </p></p> Category: Costume
