Flowery Heart

cults3d

Human: Heart and flowers are designed separately in Mathematica, then edited, scaled, and assembled together using MeshMixer.\nThis project is part of my 3D printing initiative "Surprise Box".\n\nThin elements are involved.\nThe revised and printable version is called "ReallyFinally3stl_repariedsimplied". This model has been cleaned, solidified, error-checked, strengthened, and simplified. Consequently, it's more suitable for printing. I'll test it within a few days and post a picture of the printed result here later.\nAlso, since the original flowers weren't print-ready, I tweaked the formula numbers in Mathematica slightly, resulting in different flower shapes. (If you notice, all three flowers are distinct.) It's intriguing to discover that adjusting the power of one formula can generate something resembling a butterfly! Therefore, I added the butterfly to the new version!\nUse MeshLab and NetFabb Basic for cleaning and simplifying.\n* Both software are free.\nUpdate B\nPrinting is finally complete!\nI used powdery SLS material and it resulted in a hollow effect inside the heart.\n:)\nSLA could be an alternative option, but it may be more expensive than SLS. However, SLA can provide a smoother surface compared to SLS.
