Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket Mascot

thingiverse

First project using Sculptris was created for my boss, who is an enthusiastic fan of Georgia Tech. The print was not easy to complete and had to be sat on its face and reinforced with 'everywhere' support. A larger gold version is planned, but the gold PLA material being used was not functioning well. If it is successfully printed, another picture will be posted. A gold version was printed successfully. This one was printed upright using MeshMixer's overhang support feature, which was discovered recently and proved to be very useful. The STL file has also been updated with added support for the legs since one broke off during cleaning. The chin area of the object has also been fixed. Printer Settings: - Printer: Wanhao Duplicator i3 - Rafts: Yes - Supports: Yes - Resolution: .2 - Infill: 20% Notes: The object was placed on its side with the tips of the shoes on the bed to allow for a better chance at printing. Several attempts were needed to achieve a descent print.
