Moon Base One (Stand)

prusaprinters

<p>Before I bought my first (and only, so far) 3D printer, my daughter bought me a 3D printed moon with an internal LED. I love it. The moon is about 3½" in diameter and came with a stand.</p> <p>But the stand? It's a flimsy, coyote-ugly wooden piece of junk. Yech!</p> <p>Here for your enjoyment is a new, simple stand to let your focus go to the moon. I whipped it up in minutes with 3D Builder that comes with Windows 10 and printed with zero infill, as the moon weighs only a few grams. And I used clear to let the color of the moonlight reflect.</p> <p><strong>Sorry about the light grey text. :-\</strong> <strong>NOTE TO THINGIVERSE: If anybody sees this;</strong></p> <ul> <li>Please make ALL text darker. It's SO hard to see light grey on white!</li> <li>Please alphabetize the Printer Brand list, Design Tools (and other lists) when adding a creation.</li> <li>Be kind to the visually impaired!</li> </ul> <p><strong>Enjoy!</strong></p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>I3 MK3S</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.20 Quality</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> Sunlu PLA <p>Clear</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>If you can print a 40° overhang, you don't need supports.</p> My photos show a bit of red mixed with the clear at the bottom of the stand. Yes, it's red, that's the last color I printed. Although I unloaded and imagined only clear, I didn't imagine so much pigment might remain in the print head! <p>I'm a newbie and haven't figured out how to get Thingiverse to put my 3mf or stl file in the regular picture spot yet. After research, I see posts that several people are having this problem. So until it's fixed...</p> </div></p></p> Category: Sculptures
